Mccain to Republicans - Pushing balanced budget amendment is - Bizarro

What is really amazing about this is that some some members are believing that we can pass a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution in this body with its present representation, and that is foolish. That’s worse than foolish. That is deceiving many of our constituents by telling them that just because the Majority Leader tabled the Balanced Budget Amendment legislation that somehow through amending and debate we could somehow convince the majority on the other side of the aisle to go along with a balanced budge amendment to the Constitution. That is not fair. That is not fair to the American people - to hold out and say we won't agree to raising the debt limit until we pass a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution. It’s unfair, it's bizarro, and maybe some people who have only been in this body for six or seven months or so really believe that.
