| 00:00:00 | A PROPOSAL THAT WILL RECEIVE THE SUPPORT OF THEIR MAJORITY, AND OVER HERE WE HAVE INDIVIDUALS WHO BELIEVE SOMEHOW THAT THERE IS STILL A CHANCE, AT LEAST IN THIS CONGRESS, TO PASS A BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION. |
| 00:00:21 | NOW, I WILL TAKE BACK SEAT TO NONE IN MY SUPPORT OF THE BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION. |
| 00:00:29 | 13 TIMES I HAVE VOTED FOR IT. |
| 00:00:31 | I WILL VOTE FOR IT TOMORROW. |
| 00:00:33 | BUT WHAT IS REALLY AMAZING ABOUT THIS IS THAT SOME, SOME MEMBERS ARE BELIEVING THAT WE CAN PASS A BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION IN THIS BODY WITH ITS PRESENT REPRESENTATION, AND THAT IS FOOLISH. |
| 00:00:51 | THAT IS WORSE THAN FOOLISH. |
| 00:00:52 | THAT IS DECEIVING. |
| 00:00:54 | MANY OF OUR CONSTITUENTS, BY TELLING THEM THAT JUST BECAUSE THE MAJORITY LEADER TABLED THE BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT LEGISLATION, THAT SOMEHOW THROUGH AMENDING AND DEBATE, WE COULD SOMEHOW CONVINCE THE MAJORITY ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE AISLE TO GO ALONG WITH A BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT OF THE CONSTITUTION. |
| 00:01:18 | THAT IS NOT FAIR. |
| 00:01:19 | THAT IS NOT FAIR TO THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, TO HOLD OUT AND SAY WE WON'T AGREE TO RAISING THE DEBT LIMIT UNTIL WE PASS A BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION. |
| 00:01:32 | IT'S UNFAIR, IT'S BIZARRO. |
| 00:01:36 | AND MAYBE SOME PEOPLE HAVE ONLY BEEN IN |
