Of course, when you read the sequestration order, you understand that there is not as much discretion to the executive branch as some might think.

We never intended Homeland Security to bloat to this extent.

the Administration, unfortunately, has gone around touting the alleged harmful consequences of sequestration. Some of them are over the top.

I look forward to working with Mr. Connolly as we drill deeper into some of the issues of waste, fraud, and abuse, and how we can eliminate some of that unnecessary spending and cost and actually do a better job in a time of sequestration…

I will bet there isn't a clue as to what to do with it.

I am absolutely appalled at what I am finding as we continue our work, looking at these.

That would cost quite a bit of money.

Nobody can make a decision or meet a timeline.

So somebody has got to make a damn decision of moving forward. When do you expect that will be?

That has some value to the Federal Government.

That is astounding, that it has taken you a year to negotiate. What the hell would you doing, when you should have been having a deal that was close to just sewing up? It is unbelievable.
