I want everyone to see what happens
when they come here uninvited.
1:38:11
Now, isn't this
a delicious little situation.
1:38:16
You know, people really should
finish what they start.
1:38:29
But fair is fair.
That's American.
1:38:32
This bill is controversial because
it's not concerned with the bottom line.
1:38:36
It's concerned with the family,
which is the backbone of this country.
1:38:41
We must take a stand.
1:38:43
If successful,
it will enable us to thrive...
1:38:46
as the greatest country
in the world.
1:38:49
Thank you.
1:38:51
- Senator--
- One more question--
1:38:53
Are you saying you will vote
for the family relief bill today...
1:38:56
in spite of resistance
from Capitol Hill?
1:38:59
You heard my speech.
1:39:00
I'm not here to fight the Senate.
I'm here to help America.
1:39:04
- Senator, one more question--
- Thanks, everyone.
1:39:13
Now let's get some real food.
1:39:21
Ignoring my calls
is not a smart idea.
1:39:25
Running for president isn't
like working at the post office.
1:39:28
I have obligations.
1:39:30
Listen to me very carefully,
Senator.
1:39:32
Your every step, every thought, every
breath is to be cleared through me.
1:39:36
Understood?
1:39:37
You've compromised
both our positions.
1:39:39
What?
1:39:40
That bill has several amendments tacked
to it that work against my interests.
1:39:45
I'll get them severed.
1:39:46
That way
I can preserve my stance.
1:39:49
Unlike me,
you don't have that kind of power.
1:39:52
These cutbacks are locked in,
so the entire bill must fail.
1:39:55
I'll have to pull in some favors
to negate your vote...
1:39:58
and save you from looking
like a fool.
