If we had done that, we wouldn't be where we are today.

I would like to correct history--we sent a very good bill to the Senate.

If we really want to address the issue of border violence and all this we need to go and take it to them, take the fight over.

I just ask Members to be a little mindful as we go.

We can help you as much as you want us to help us--help you.

We still have to be mindful of spillover crime, but----

I again would challenge you to work together to come to some kind of consensus that we can all work with you on.

Thank you all for being here, and I especially want to welcome the witness from Colorado.

Well, if I could just make this one concluding statement, in my judgment, based upon what I have heard and learned over the decades, the fact of the matter is nobody knows whether we are going to have global cooling or global warming over…

if 98 doctors prescribe one treatment, and 2 doctors prescribe a different treatment, who are you going to follow?

I sincerely hope that this Committee is not beginning and ending its record on climate science in the 112th Congress with this hearing.

Climate changes is a cancer, and we don't cure cancer by refusing to test for it, calling the doctor a liar, and refusing to consider any treatment.

And did I hear you correctly just a moment ago that, on average, you audit individuals--about one percent of the individuals that file with the IRS per year?

So are the audits--for the business audit, are they kicked off based upon random selection, or based upon red flags that come up from the prior filings, or the periodic filings?
