I was simply quoting the moderate Republicans. for one thing. Secondly. that claim for responsibility and this assumption that they would get the job done would be more impressive if we thought that they in the Senate were going to agree to something. So. in fact. we had a problem earlier this year where bills passed in somewhat different form in the House and the Senate were signed into law despite the Constitution. and we now know why. because whether it is lobbying and ethics reform or the budget or immigration. the Republican House and the Republican Senate cannot get together. I will have to say to the gentleman from Florida that beating of your chest and talking about how responsive you are as to beat the moderates into submission would be more Impressive if I thought you had any chance of getting an actual budget signed by the Senate.
