“I think one thing missing in this discussion is what the American people want. I am here to say, at least from my standpoint, what I think they might be saying to us. First, that these Members of Congress are sitting up there and distinguishing between this and that and the Attorney General and the prosecutor and legal matters and criminal matters, when all they are trying to do is to have special treatment for special people. I think we have a problem with the American people in that we have a very powerful Member or Members who might be involved in this. That divides us from them, in their minds, and I think the only thing that we have to do is say 'What do the people at the ground level want?' And discuss that. All of these other arguments are filled with persuasion and they make sense when you look at it from up here and we sit and we talk back and forth, and we can talk about malted milk and other things and jurisdiction and so forth, but the American people need to be heard, and we need to let them be heard with this vote so that we can have this investigation and show them that they are a part of this process.”
