A CLEAR MISSION
(Mr. FRISA asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Mr. FRISA. Mr. Speaker, 1 year ago today I walked into this great
House as a brandnew Member of Congress representing Long Island, NY.
When I did that, I had one mission 1 year ago, and that was to do
things differently, to get away from the rhetoric and the empty words
that really are not truthful.
The simple fact is, we have done our job. The President does not like
it. My colleagues on the other side of the aisle certainly do not like
it.
Here is the result of our work product. We promised a balanced
budget; we delivered it. Here it is. Mr. Speaker, anyone in this
country who would like to get a copy of this real budget, call my
office, 202-225-5516; I will send you one.
If you would like to see the President's alternative balanced budget,
you do not have to call. You can see it right here. You cannot really
see it, because it does not exist.
The President of the United States has not done his job. Though he
has done a lot of yakking, and he has done a lot of blabbing; he has
not rolled up his sleeves and done the real work and put numbers on the
table.
