        THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT A BALANCED BUDGET, NOT EXCUSES

  (Mr. HAYWORTH asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HAYWORTH. Mr. Speaker, for weeks now, liberal Democrats have 
taken to this floor to decry, accuse, condemn, denounce, declaim, 
vilify, incriminate, fulminate, remonstrate, deprecate, and attack any 
plan to balance our budget. For some reason, they see no need to 
balance our budget. We have to make changes.
  Despite all the carping from the other side, our friends on this side 
offer no alternatives. They offer no solutions. They offer no plan.
  Mr. Speaker, yesterday the Republican majority introduced a plan to 
balance our budget in 7 years. There is no longer any excuse not to 
balance the budget. We have exhausted all the old methods. All of the 
old big government ideas have been tried and found wanting and found 
lacking. for the liberals to come to this floor with their hot air 
about class warfare is nothing short of irresponsible.
  The American people are tired of excuses. They want this Congress to 
balance the budget. Republicans will do this, with or without the 
carping and crying of the liberal Democrats.
