MORNING IN AMERICA BRINGS NEW COURSE OF ACTION -- (House of Representatives - March 18, 2009)
(Mr. JOHNSON of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. JOHNSON of Georgia. Good morning, everybody; good morning, America. How are you? I am showing my age a little bit.
Ladies and gentlemen, it is always great to be an American, and it is always a great time in America because we have hope and vision for the future, and I am happy to report to you that Congress and the Obama administration have departed on a new course of action--no more voodoo economics, no more trickle-down economics. These are failed policies, and it is time for something new.
Whenever something new is on the table, there are always those who, instead of appreciating being Americans, they complain and don't add anything positive to the discussion.
But despite the obstacles that we confront, we will continue down this road. And, indeed, America will continue to experience morning in America.
