Transcription

TRANSCRIPTION: We must get the deficit under control. The phrase is fine but not just an across-the-board freeze. That's the typical Congressional approach to avoid tough decisions. The spending free should be flexible enough to allow for presidential leadership. Protect Social Security more money for education and fighting drugs less money for pet projects and boondoggles. No new taxes. No oil import fee presidential leadership is the answer. Sir.
