It just seems that if you're going to have by April of next year, at the very latest, an idea where you're going to move them, it surely would help if we could not wait for the whole BRAC process.

I think that's a very important new concept, and we need to have the nice places for them to be.

I would just like to follow-up and ask General Fox, would you say that Vandenberg is still a priority, as it was last year?

Well, certainly placement is a big part of it.

Well, we have capacity that is unused.

I am confident that under your guidance, this agency is in good hands to address the challenges facing the Nation.

As a member of this committee, I have been privileged to visit with our soldiers who are fighting to free Iraqis...

Knowing how the Army is successfully confronting an adversary which does not wage open battle against the United States...

I agree with what you have said. We do have boots on the ground in two very dangerous places...

These same soldiers are proudly working to create an environment where people no longer fear the government...

I think it is appropriate and indeed necessary for us to ask difficult questions.

I agree with what you have said. We do have boots on the ground in two very dangerous places...

Thank you, Senator, for giving me the opportunity to do this.

I think we found out yesterday... that an al Qaeda-connected animal perpetrated a heinous crime on videotape in Baghdad.

What we have come to call in my office the concept of work and return.

Our friends in Mexico and other countries want their citizens to come home.

President Fox, Vicente Fox, also endorsed this concept.

I look forward, after concluding my remarks, to joining you up there as a member of the Subcommittee.
