Leon Panetta: “You're dealing with a very serious deficit issue and debt issue.”

Make no mistake about it, that would be an act of war because it would threaten our national security.

I think we have to take this intelligence assessment as a real threat to NATO.

The message that went out from this meeting to the world is that United States credibility in dealing with our allies has taken a real hit.

I think the House, both the Speaker, the Republicans, the Democrats, have to come together to now move this supplemental. It is critical to the message we send to the world about U.S. world leadership.
