Chris Dodd: “I appreciate your invitation to testify on my experiences with the SEC with regard to the Bernard Madoff scandal.”

I'll tell you, one of the things I feel very good about is that there are people like Bob Menendez, who care about these issues.

It's far more complicated than a common language.

In fact, it was the uncertainty inherent in a nontransparent and reckless financial system that made Dodd-Frank necessary in the first place.

Maybe we ought to be spending a little more time looking at the relationships at that level.
