Clip: Washington Senate Debate

TIMELINE

00:00:00	NON-DEFENSE DOMESTIC SPENDING INCREASED 8% A YEAR WITH REPUBLICAN CONTROLLED BOTH HOUSES OF CONGRESS AND WHITE HOUSE.
00:00:06	THIS IS DEFICIT A BIPARTISAN ISSUE.
00:00:09	FIRST OF ALL, WE NEED TO, BE RESPONSIBLE TO OUR GRANDCHILDREN.
00:00:14	IT'S IRRESPONSIBLE FOR TO US BE SPENDING THIS WAY WHEN THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PAY THE TAXES FOR IT.

00:00:58	IT'S THE REPUBLICANS HAVE BROUGHT US HERE.
00:01:00	WHAT WE NEED TO DO IS GO BACK TO THE '90s WHEN WE HAD FISCAL DISCIPLINE AND GOT A BALANCED BUDGET DID SO BY SAYING WE'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THINGS AS WE GO.
00:01:10	THE SPENDING INCREASES AND TAX CUTS SO THAT OUR BUDGET MAKES SENSE.
00:01:14	WE'LL HAVE DISCRETIONARY SPENDING CAPS SO WE KNOW WHAT WE'RE SPENDING.
00:01:18	AND, WE'RE ALSO, GOING TO MAKE SURE THAT BUDGET
