Billy Long, Now and Then

“Sequestration was the president’s idea. Hopefully we can budget and do away with the sequester before her husband is laid off.”

— Rep. Billy Long (R-MO), in an interview on KOLR-TV.

“The people that I’ve talked to seem to be doing well. In fact, when I got out in restaurants here in town, people come up to me. They want to see more sequestration, not less.”

— Long, in an interview on the same station earlier this month.
