                               THE TOP 10

  (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, from the home office in Scottsdale, AZ, 
here are the top 10 reasons why liberals refuse to help in the effort 
to save Medicare from bankruptcy.
  No. 10, they are not in charge anymore.
  No. 9, they are just mad because they will not be getting a pay raise 
this session.
  No. 8, fearmongering. What a blast.
  No. 7, they might throw a collective tantrum and explode.
  No. 6, they are just stalling until they can get into the witness 
protection program.
  No. 5, responsibility? Why act responsible?
  No. 4, that Trojan horse thing. What a breakthrough in modern 
political communications.
  No. 3, forget that going from $4,800 per year to $6,700 per year is 
really an increase. Forget that. We have some really neat color 
pictures to show you.
  No. 2, with all their scary disguises they did not know Halloween was 
at the end of the month.
  And the No. 1 reason why liberals refuse to help us in our efforts to 
save Medicare from bankruptcy, well, that would actually mean caring 
about seniors instead of the next election.
