Government Shutdown

Floor Speech

Date: Sept. 28, 2013
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Government Operations Government Budget and Spending

Ms. FRANKEL of Florida. Mr. Speaker, with all due respect to my friends on the other side of the aisle, this shutdown talk has evolved to ridiculousness.

To quote Dr. Seuss:

When beetles fight these battles in a bottle with their paddles

And the bottle's on a poodle and the poodle's eating noodles .....

They call this a muddle puddle tweetle poodle beetle noodle bottle paddle battle.

Mr. Speaker, it's time to work together and stop these beetles. I mean, stop the battle.
