I believe, and many others in the intelligence community that I have talked to, many others in the defense industry say if you can't identify an enemy, it is very difficult to defeat the enemy.

I would like to recommend to my colleagues that they view Senator Tim Scott's floor speech from yesterday.

I don't believe that we can throw Charleston into the same mix. I believe that was a law enforcement issue.

We need to realize that no fly, no buy also violates the Fifth and Sixth Amendment guarantees of due process.

This has been about the most pleasant hearing I think we've ever had in this committee, because I think I agree with about everything that everybody said here today.

I tell people in my district all the time that we all don't hate each other up here, though some people out in the country seem to think that's the case and that everything is so partisan and divisive.

There were 1.12 million Federal employees engaged in activities that could be provided by the private sector.

If a Federal agency is providing a good or service that can be provided by the private sector more efficiently and cost effectively, we should contract out for that good or service.

Government competition affects small businesses every day in every congressional district across the country.

The pattern is clear. We have been asking about these Gitmo Six and about the Uruguayans' ability to monitor them for a long time now.

We talked about gross negligence here. And you said that Secretary Clinton was extremely careless with this classified material, and how dangerous it could be, how threatening, even to people's lives that it could be to disclose classified…

You doubt that great numbers feel that way?

Well, do you understand, as the chairman said earlier, that great numbers of people feel now that there's a one standard of justice for the Clintons and another for regular people?

I can assure you that I saw many cases where the evidence of criminal intent was flimsier than the evidence in this case.

Do you feel that Secretary Clinton knew, or should have known, that she was obligated to protect classified information?

Actually, she said that several other times.

It is heartbreaking for the Venezuelan people when you think about the resources that are available there, the country that Venezuela can be.

I think we have opened a number of lines of thought and I hope we will continue the dialogue because the Venezuelan people need us to continue the dialogue.

Now we are letting the people of Venezuela down.

We are letting people of Venezuela down when we don't use the laws to the fullest extent.

What a lot of the problems we are experiencing in Venezuela right now are because of that same Marxist philosophy

The Kirchner government and more socialist policies of big government top-down approach, Keynesian economics, just don't work

A socialism type of government with a dictatorial leader like Maduro is not a viable form of government in the 21st century

I think the Venezuelan people want that. I think the Maduro government is actually putting it off.

What is it going to take to change--to have changes happen in Venezuela?
