I thank the gentleman. What a great point. It is unbelievable that the Commander in Chief of this country has sidelined his own men and women in uniform and the civilians that support and defend this country. Thank you for bringing that up. I agree with you, we have done everything we can. When this first happened, we signed a letter and sent it to the President. We said, We did not intend for you to be able to furlough these people. We want everyone back on the job. So far, we haven't heard a thing. As Representative Lankford said, they're still studying the issue. Well, I call on the Commander in Chief of this country to step forward and be a Commander in Chief and to put that order out to bring them back for the good of our country. And now I am pleased to yield to my friend from Minnesota, the wonderful lady, Michele Bachmann.
