***********************************
Jeff Berkowitz; So, on the bill you were voting on on Sep. 29 [2008], what was wrong with that bill [the first bail-out bill]?

Cong. Manzullo: …a Board was set up, but by the time the Board could meet and take a look at the investments, the Secretary of the Treasury could have gone through 700 billion dollars in thirty days

Jeff Berkowitz; …are you 1000 % Pro-Life?

Cong. Manzullo: either you are Pro-Life or you’re not.

Jeff Berkowitz: Would you allow any exceptions? Just for the life of the mother to have an abortion?

Cong. Manzullo: That’s correct. That’s correct.

Jeff Berkowitz: Not for rape or incest?

Cong. Manzullo: No, you’re dealing with a child. It’s a very difficult situation—
