The discussion this week as I came back, is it ISIS or is it ISIL? No, it is terrorists.
What we are dealing with are terrorists, these people who have a keen interest in killing every Muslim that disagrees with them.
It is so sad to me this administration I think began with obfuscation, that it would say we are in a global war on terrorists.
Folks in South Carolina and folks I talk to all over the country are concerned of what is going on in Iraq because we lost so many men and women there.
It is wrong that you have troops serving overseas receiving these notices and they have to think about transition to civilian life.
Again, we are all very appreciative of the competence and capabilities and the dedication of the people who are working on these issues.
This is very encouraging, as you say change needed, that is impressive to me without recrimination and apparently, hopefully, without turf protection.
What a positive report. This is very unusual in Congress and--to see it coming together with common sense, so thank you very much.
I am particularly concerned about the Department of Defense, how they acquire information, IT, technology systems.
I want to thank you and Vice Chairman Mac Thornberry for your leadership on these issues as we work to improve the system.
And, Mr. King, in the event the Supreme Court holds that the January 2012; recess appointments to the NLRB are unconstitutional, what will come of the thousands of decisions issued by the board?
I think that we are the prime example of abuse by the NLRB, which has made every effort to destroy jobs and destroy opportunity for the people in my state.
