                     PUT ASIDE THE PARTISAN AGENDA

  (Mr. JOHNSON of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. JOHNSON of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, the masters of information, 
which I call my colleagues on the other side of the aisle here, can't 
disagree with the fact that jobs, homes and insurance have been lost by 
Americans due to the failed Bush policies of trickle-down economics.
  I want to talk about health care. A few people came up to me during 
our last district work period, and said, I've lost my job. I've lost my 
home to foreclosure, but take care of health care.
  We can do it together if we stop the obstruction on the other side of 
the aisle. This is very important for the American people. Instead of 
being masters of misinformation, I think my colleagues on the other 
side should put aside their partisan agenda and work towards what is 
best for the American people.
