As the richest country in the history of the world, we should not have undrinkable water in any corner of this country, and yet we do.

There are none?

I will tell you unequivocally that I think the creation of the CFPB is a good thing for America.

We can always go back tomorrow, change that statutory authorization, and make it any number we choose.

I believe it is a severe abuse of a confirmation process. The confirmation process should center on the qualifications of an individual, not on attempting to change the underlying bill.

The whole reason I supported the creation of this agency is that there were too many agencies doing their own little work in their own little silo.

But as you are getting started, remember that Congress wrote this law kind of going forward, too.

I would certainly like to know about it.

I have actually voted to cut some EPA funding in the past because I don't like some of the things they have done.

Honestly, I was listening to the chairman's questions, and paper work for a justification is all well and good, but the truth is I don't judge most agencies by what they say they want to do. I judge them by what they do, the EPA included.

But up until now, you have--the last I heard, you are about $150 million below the cap which is, give or take, 20 percent, maybe more?
