No, we're not talking about a lot of things; we're talking about this particular request for modularity.
to start--in an appropriations supplemental, a multiyear appropriations request, strikes me to be very, very strange.
I do not believe that we can overstate the importance or the difficulty of the challenge before the Congress.
I cannot understand why the administration chose to begin a major war knowing that our troops did not have enough body and vehicle armor.
