John McCain

The president says that the reason why the troops we have are there and the airstrikes we're launching is one for humanitarian reasons as ISIS again traps people in humanitarian crisis or protection of American troops.

I was astounded when the president of the United States said that the world has always been messy and it's been accentuated by social media. That means that the President Obama is either in denial or overwhelmed.

They are now the largest, richest, most powerful terrorist organization on earth, and they do -- according to all of our intelligence people serve as a threat to the United States.

Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case. The president continues to talk about messy times and social networking. The president is either in denial or overwhelmed, I'm not sure which.

It has become obvious to me... that this is really in every aspect a treaty that is being considered with Iran.

So that means really then, if we are going to take action in Iraq we should also take action in Syria; would you agree?

I certainly do agree with your statement you cannot fight something with nothing, because that is what we have been doing, nothing.

I'm proud to say that Indian gaming stands today as a proven economic driver that empowers over 240 gaming tribes across the nation to pursue the principles of Indian self-determination and tribal self-governance.

So unless Congress acts in a way to prohibit what is happening now, it is inevitable that you will see the Tohono O'odham tribe operating a casino in Glendale?

And have you taken the strong opinion by other tribes from Arizona concerning this operation being set up by the Tohono O'odham Tribe?

Do you ask for the opinion of other Indian tribes who are engaged in gaming in the vicinity?

When you make these decisions, at least to some degree the opinion of the local authorities and governments are taken into some consideration, I would assume.

Those are largely what is normally needed when you set up an operation, or any business, actually.

And of course, when that legislation, the Gila Bend Reservation Lands Replacement Act, there was no Indian gaming at the time.

I understand that Interior took the land into trust last week after following the court's decision in favor of the Tohono O'odham Nation.

I think you should wear it for the entire hearing.

I still hope that we can resolve this issue by sitting down, party to party, individual to individual, tribe to government.

The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act has been a tremendous success.

I am proud to say that Indian gaming stands today as a proven economic driver that empowers over 240 gaming tribes across the Nation to pursue the principles of Indian self-determination and tribal self-governance.

Mohave County is perplexed by this revisionist history, and is concerned by its intent.

But right now, according to you, the IRS is auditing 0.8 percent of the large partnerships in the United States.

I think they serve a valuable commercial purpose.

That is not what has happened here.

And that decision is made by really smart people they hire that do----

So, Mr. Rosenthal, we are really talking about de facto tax avoidance here. Is that correct?
