I honor the chairman's service, and I know of his dedication to our country. What I'm pointing out is that I think it's time we have the discussion about the role that the CIA had in Libya, which was really no secret, and the fact that these missiles that really we should have known ahead of time where they were, that that should have been the first place we want to guard. All of a sudden we have surface-to-air missiles that can't be accounted for. I think the CIA has to take responsibility for that. I want to thank the gentleman, though, for the way in which he's conducted the points that he's made.
