and so then we startedn with frank luntz when, as frank points out, he was still irrelevant. and we felt fortunate when he became a major player in the republican contract, so we decided to include both of them. and with the lobbyists, we were afraid we would never find a lobbyist who would be truthful with us, and so we started out with two because normally, lobbyists operate beneath the radar. they don't like the public or the press to see what they're doing. we ended up with two people who we thought were quite forthcoming, and swe have two in each of those chapters. and we had an abundance of riches, actually. >> each one of these characters presents a different challenge. and, for instance, daniel patrick moynihan is so professorial, when we interviewed him, he... we'll... we always remember, he took a book down from his shelf in his office and he began to quote from it. turned out it was a book he himself had written, so he was quoting himself to us during this interview. he was awfully charming, and when he got the chapters, he sent us three different notes commenting

frank: i was just yielding to the gentleman. -- mr. franks: i was just yielding to the gentleman. such time as he may consume. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from arizona will control the time. mr. price: i commend my friend for taking time this evening on what truly is a historic day. an opportunity for this nation to begin, just begin, to move things in the right direction from a fiscal standpoint here in our great country. the debate over the last, oh, three to four months has been very loud. sometimes it's been acrimonious. there are many people across this great country who just are confounded by the la boirs you nature with which it takes to make any changes here in washington at all. i share that frustration and share that anger and share that concern because we've been moving in the wrong direction for a long, long time. as it relates to spending at the federal level. so what we as the gentleman from arizona so appropriately said was, what we need to do is decrease spending in the short-term. we need to put some controls on spending in the mid term. but in the long

everything worth reacting to can be worth overreacting to with dodd-frank. do you think that we need to have regular review of some of these regulations to make sure that they are effective and efficient and not con training as far as this relationship is with the community banks and small business owners? >> that's a good question, and the dodd-frank agent to some extent contemplates this because it does provide for significant regulations that the bureau adopts that we should be assessing the regulation within, i think, it's about five years, and so that's a statutory requirement, and one that we intend to follow dill gently. well, i'm concerned with that -- >> well, i'm concerned with that because the last report said they are freezing hiring. 70% of them said that. waiting five years for a review is not setting conditions for the growth of small businesses. can we come back and look at a semireview and include people that this could be affecting, community banks, small business owners, instead of waiting five years for a review? >> we have a process, in
