"I was shocked and dismayed again to learn that our Senate majority leader, Senator Reid from Nevada, stated just a few hours ago that he does not like this legislation. He made some very disparaging comments about it, notwithstanding the fact and completely ignoring the fact that this is not just the best legislation to address the debt limit issue, right now it is the only legislation. It is the only legislation that addresses this issue that is moving through Congress and that has been reduced to legislative language. It is certainly the only one that has been passed by one body of Congress and is now moving over to the Senate."
