Jeff Fortenberry: “Only, Mr. Chairman, to thank you for your probing and thoughtful questions here and for running this hearing so…”

I told them what I knew and what I understood. They`ve accused me of lying to them and are charging me with this. We`re shocked. We`re stunned. I feel so personally betrayed. We thought we were trying to help.

I think it has been a very important discussion about a wide-ranging breadth of things.

Thank you, Madam Chair. I appreciate you holding this hearing.

But the heart of the matter that came out of that meeting of not being properly informed about the hold was, what are the metrics that we are using here to determine whether or not we are being successful?
