Political Quotes

“And I say to my friend, he cared not only about what kind of equipment our military people used, but he also really cared about those people. When we lost the Rangers in Somalia a couple of years ago, there was one member of the Committee on National Security who went out and got into an aircraft and flew about 20 hours to get over to Somalia and looked at all the facts, all the things that had happened, got debriefed on that tragedy, and then flew all the way back here and contacted every single member of the families of those Rangers who had been killed in Somalia. That was Bob Dornan. And I felt so proud when I heard that Bob had done that, because that reflected so well on us as a Committee on National Security, the old Committee on Armed Services, because it is filled with people who really care about people in uniform and Bob had kept that tradition and kept that legacy going on.”
