I have this long, beautiful, and very boring speech. I won't bother reading it, because we can just start talking.
I think it's very important we have to get the country open, and the way we're going to do it this afternoon is to terminate the filibuster. It is possible you're not going to do that, and I'm going to go by your wishes.
You're very smart people. We're good friends, but I think it's a tremendous mistake, really. It would be a tragic mistake, actually. It's time. It's time. If I thought they weren't going to approve, I'd sort of be with you. It'd be fine. I'd be neutral to with you, but knowing that they're going to pass it as soon as they get any semblance of control, they'll pass it first thing, then it's like we have to do it first.
And we have two years, and we'll end up with two, three years, and we'll have this country so perfect. We will have passed more legislation than any Congress and any group of senators or a group of congressmen. And we will get it done.
We'll get it through. They'll send it to us. We'll send it to them. It'll be a beautiful machine. Otherwise, we're just going to sit around and argue with these people all day long, and they're highly unrealistic.
