EXCERPT:

LEAVITT: “Are you denying that Medicaid money has never gone to illegal aliens in the United States of America?”

REPORTER: “I’m not denying anything. I’m asking you if you can explain the disconnect in the messaging.”

LEAVITT: “I most certainly can. The Democrats’ proposal, their continuing resolution, let me just reiterate. The Republicans’ continuing resolution was a clean continuing resolution. There was no partisan politics injected into it. There were no conservative wish lists injected to it. What the Republicans want, and still want to this very second, is a clean continuing resolution to fund the United States government.”
