Tom Cole actually said...

"it is very difficult when it is a President of your own party"

"I would rather act and not get it quite right than do nothing at all and miss this really unique opportunity to reassert congressional authority."

"Ensuring that the American people have a say in the ways in which our Nation goes into war and exits one, to reestablish communication and consultation between the Congress and the President on issues..."

"Shame on us if we miss the opportunity to actually reclaim our authority when we actually have an administration that wants to help us."
