trillion in cuts. we ve done $600 billion in revenues. you re going to need more revenues as well as more cuts to get the deficit down. and i ve talked to leader reid. i ve talked to budget chair murray. we re going to do a budget this year. and it s going to have revenues in it. and our republican colleagues better get used to that fact. senator cruz? david, i ll mention there was an area of substantial agreement with what chuck just said. he said we should never, ever compromise the full faith and credit of the united states. i agree. and in fact, there is a bill that i am co-sponsoring, the full faith and credit act, which provides that, regardless of what happens to the debt ceiling, the united states will always, always, always meet its debt. we will never default on its debt. that was introduced in 2010. it didn t pass because harry reid and president obama didn t want it to pass. they wanted to raise the specter of a default to use. so, chuck, you and i could make news right

building instead of the 60 votes. in a democracy, the way that you know what people want is if they free and fair regular election. right. this argument about when the democrats are what progressives that might be nervous. everybody has unclean hands in this process. at least we could return to talking about substance. when georgew bush wanted to privatize social security, he had a republican house, it didn t pass the republican house. it was not filibustered. it was unpopular because there s a debate about how unpopular it was. that s good. it should require some effort. you should be out making your case. risking it should require some effort. not as you said. pushing a button or citing something. when you debate, you need free and pharafaipharaoh owe st tara and raul, thank you for being here. dorian going to hang out a
