Bob Corker: “You had one, and that is all you asked for when you started. I do not want to reiterate that. I never said I could speak…”

“You had one, and that is all you asked for when you started. I do not want to reiterate that. I never said I could speak for anybody but myself. And I did not leave the table. I never left the table. So the fact is, the bill took a partisan turn on March 10. There is no denying that. You would not deny that and look at me with a straight face. There are some bipartisan solutions in this bill, I grant that, and I thank you for those inclusions. But there is still work to be done. And I would say to you that what Republicans are trying to do is say, let's finish that work before it gets to the floor. You have said this, and I do not think I am betraying confidences. I would never do that intentionally. This is a complicated piece of legislation. What we need to do is get the template--at least bipartisan in the beginning. And then you are right, there are issues such as the Volcker rule and there are governance issues that are going to be amended back and forth. But let's at least get the main parts of the bill right in the beginning--close to right--not the way you would want it on your own, not the way I would want it on my own. That has not happened on a number of the titles, in fairness. I would urge everyone--there has been a lot of work done. You have done a tremendous amount of work in this committee. Let's finish that work over the next 10 days. Let's quit yelling at each other, and let's finish the work the American people sent us to do. I am not lecturing.…”
