“The understanding was not--and my intention at that point in discussing this was not to stop the questioning, but it is in the concern for the integrity of the question. You and I have talked before in our committee, and when we have said--and you have asked the chairman for clarification, that was my intention in that and that was my entire intention in that, and from there, the chairman took action from there. I think the interesting thing in here is the chairman did, at the start of the meeting, say that Mr. Nunes would be leaving. That was stated up front and there was no objection at that point for him doing so.”
