Maybe cut back on the conference; maybe actually achieve some savings for the taxpayer.

That is something the American taxpayer wants to know.

Forty-nine conferences, 12 million bucks, but we are going to have 90-minute delays because of the sequester, right?

Mr. Duncan made this claim not once, not twice, but three times. Let this be a teachable moment for him.

The President was making statements that just weren't accurate.

If Government agencies and the secretaries who head those agencies would spend more time implementing the IGs' recommendations and less time scaring the American people with all the political statements they have made regarding…

I appreciate--I have worked with Mr. Connolly before on projects important to his district and the region.

And exceeding the 50th percentile. So even exceeding the average in the industry. Amazing.

Such a deal. Such a deal.

The Treasury Department continues to abdicate its responsibility to taxpayers, breaking a firm promise our President, President Obama, made to the American people.

Man, we do need some controls put in place. The taxpayers are surely getting a bum deal here.

But what I am saying is are we going to have to look at legislation, introduce legislation, try to pass something to make this office accountable to the taxpayer?

So here is what the taxpayer sees, and think about it in the context of what Ms. Romero said; we want to make this uncomfortable because we have taxpayer money at risk.

So, to cut to the chase, the special master allowed pay increases to take place with a company 74 percent owned by the taxpayers on the verge of bankruptcy.

And exceeding the 50th percentile.

They approved a pretty good compensation package for the CEO of ResCap just last year.

There is no concrete plan at all to get Ally out of TARP.

Are you going to approve it now?
