I believe, as does the leadership of my party, that the matter was so serious that it warrants being looked into by the House. It is my understanding that during the break, that the majority agreed that we will have staff looking into it, we will have bipartisan meetings the week we get back, and we will on a bipartisan basis report back to the House on the matter that was reported in the Washington Times this morning. I think that is the appropriate, bipartisan way to deal with an issue like this.
