Mike Turner

Part of the reason I voted against TARP and why I think people are so upset about all these bailouts is because that is not really an accurate statement

We need to determine and learn the manner in which this was done so that we can correct it.

The administration is going to have to 'fess up that there were decisions that they made.

This is not an issue of division between you. It is winners and losers chosen by the government, not chosen by your fellow co-workers.

The Federal Government, this administration, trying to control the people of this country instead of working for the people of this country.

Thank you for coming here, for having this hearing.

I did not want our chairman to leave because obviously one of the things that I want to do is to thank him.

I mean, we do not buy, and no one in this room buys, that there was independent General Motors in that bankruptcy.

When taxpayer dollars are stake, and when the auto task force made up of Federal employees is making the decision, that is the key issue here.

Mr. Turner. Thank you. Mr. Chairman, I have looked at this as a who, what, when, where investigation on the Federal side, and also the issue of, you know, where was the money, where did it go, and then ultimately how do we get it back?

This was done with taxpayers' dollars ultimately... what came out at the other end with General Motors and Delphi was a different animal that went in.

I want to congratulate you and the other Delphi salaried retirees because you have... managed it to give us the issues and the information.

Mr. Jordan has held because we are getting the picture of really the crux of the problem in that we do not have the information from the administration as to how these decisions were made.

I would like to ask unanimous consent that the written statements of Delphi salaried retirees that are unable to be here today to testify be included in the record.

It is discriminating.

His father, like mine, retired from General Motors. My father retired from General Motors after 42 years as a result of the GM bankruptcy.

I greatly appreciate the manner in which you have allowed the retirees and their issues to be addressed.

Thank you for bringing this Washington committee hearing here to Dayton, OH.

The Obama Administration is currently conducting a 90-day 'NPR Implementation Study,' which will likely result in changes to U.S. nuclear weapon employment guidance.

China says that it maintains a minimum deterrence posture designed to deter nuclear attacks on its homeland.

The open-source information available on Chinese nuclear forces, strategy, and production is extremely limited.

If these reports are true, Putin's Russia has returned to the worst arms control behavior of the Soviet Union.

I want to thank each of our witnesses today. As you know, this is part of our overall effort to get a grasp of not only the countries that we are looking at for our deterrence, but also looking at their modernization programs as it affects…

I couldn't agree more. That is why one of the New START Implementation Act provisions contained in the House-passed fiscal year 2012 NDAA would ensure that we don't unilaterally reduce.

Your opening statement mentions open source evidence that Russia may be in violation of the Intermediate Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty.
