Guess who was on that Defense Committee that i got to work with . Barry goldwater. John tower, one of the great minds. Gary hart, democrat, one of the smartest people i ever worked with. People who had been basically given their limbs in world war ii. So it was a great experience, learning about threats and systems and spending and reform and all that. And then six years in i was able to get on the Budget Committee, which is what i always wanted to be on because i learned i havent told the story when i ran for the state senate, i said there were two things we shouldnt do. We shouldnt raise our pay because i wanted the legislature to be parttime. The second thing is i wont vote for any tax increases. So republicans win the majority and they decide to raise taxes, and raise their pay. So i turned the pay down, which i came to learn later most people thought i was nuts. The other thing is they wanted to raise taxes, and i said i am not voting for it, and they said i was irresponsible. So
