Chris Dodd: “This committee and the Congress in its role in foreign policy has been at its strongest when we've been bipartisan.”

I frankly don't see the sovereignty issue as playing a role as an impediment as much as the sheer ability of the cartels to corrupt.

There's nothing wrong with enlightened self-interest.
