“It’s just incredibly irresponsible,” says Collins.
“Yes,” says Reed, adding softly, “I think — I think he’s crazy …”
“I’m worried,” Collins says, apparently agreeing.
“I mean, I don’t say that lightly and as ‘a kind of a goofy guy,'” Reed adds. “If we don’t get a budget deal, we’re going to be paralyzed …”
“I don’t think he knows there is a BCA [2011 Budget Control Act] or anything,” says Collins.
