“I appreciate the gentleman from New Jersey. I think the interesting thing is that I have listened to him--as he said, he is on a roll--and I think we are probably in more agreement than we are disagreeing here. I wasn't here to--in fact, you said to ``turn a blind eye.'' This is a problem, and it doesn't matter who is there. If it is a Republican, it is wrong; if it is a Democrat, it is wrong, Mr. Speaker. That is why we are here. I agree with the outrage. It shouldn't happen, especially when you get into the fact that the Department of Justice is actually taking money and putting money to departments and programs that this Congress had cut funding from. That is not right. I don't care who the administration is; I don't care who the President is. I agree with the gentleman from New Jersey. He makes a passionate argument. Maybe you just need to come over here and help me out. We are making the right argument here. So the question now becomes--no matter where it comes from--and the interesting issue here is this shouldn't be taking place, no matter who is over it. The problem is, and what I would love to ask is: Where has the Department of Justice been for the last 7 years on any issue, for the most part? It has been very frustrating to both sides of the aisle. On this one, I actually think we can find more agreement than we can find disagreement.…”
