SPEAKING OF DOUBLESPEAK
(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, speaking of Orwellian doublespeak, to hear
my friends from New York talk about Washington and Jefferson and
Lincoln and mention the current occupant of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in
the same breath is truly astounding.
My colleagues, once you get past the politics of victimization, the
debate is about this: Why is $12 trillion over the next 7 years not
enough? Why should the children being born today pay over $185,000 in
interest on the debt if we fail to act? My friend from New York indicts
this majority in Congress because he would rather go back to business
as usual, to the 40 years that gave us this mind-boggling debt, to just
continuing on with spend and spend and tax and spend some more.
Mr. Speaker, the American people deserve better. I am proud to stand
up for the people.
