There has never been a time in the history of this country when the FBI was more important. We are facing serious. dangerous imminent threats. To not fund the FBI or the Border Patrol or the TSA and to have the sequester affect those agencies and kid ourselves that we are dealing with our national security responsibilities is just not responsible. It is just not right. And to borrow the money to fix some of these things is not responsible or fair to our grandchildren. We are saying: We are just going to fix defense with this funnymoney deal. a gimmick wrapped up in a trick. but we are not going to fix anything else. I talked about the FBI. the TSA. Border Patrol. and national security issues. but what about NIH and what about scientific research that can save lives? And we are having the sequester and saying: It is OK. we can do that. What about education?
