Do I have your commitment that the Navy will meet the 2014 statement of budgetary resources deadline?

This refusal has put our military leaders in a difficult and dangerous situation.

Are the detainees held at Naval Station, Guantanamo Bay being treated in a professional and humane manner, which is compliant with U.S. law?

If we captured Ayman al Zawahiri tonight, can you tell me where we would detain him for long-term Law of War detention and interrogation?

President Obama has sought to close Naval Station, Guantanamo Bay and has refused to put new detainees there.

We need it sooner. Let me just say that you can do all the planning you want for the President's budget, but it is pie in the sky right now.

Thank you for your recent visit to New Hampshire. It really meant a lot to our men and women in uniform.

In light of the rebalance to Asia and our Nation's budget crisis, how would you respond to those who argue that the United States can't afford to maintain a significant U.S. military presence in Europe?

General Breedlove, if confirmed, will you work with the State Department to encourage our European allies to increase even further their sanctions against Iran?
