And I appreciate the gentleman's comments. And I also want to thank the gentleman from Georgia for allowing us this time tonight. I think I would leave you and leave the American people not with my words and not with Members of Congress or even General Petraeus or some of the other military leaders, but I will leave you with the words I started off the evening with in my time here is the words of the young men and women that are boots on the ground, that have served not one tour, but two tours, and many of them three tours, when they looked me in my eye and they said, 'Congressman, we want to go home. We want to spend time with our families. We want to go back to our communities. But, Congressman, we have a lot invested in this war, probably more than anyone else, and let us finish this job.' And so I urge my colleagues to listen to these young brave men and women that are doing phenomenal things for our country and for the people in Iraq. Listen to the soldiers: Let's finish this job.

We can no longer settle for the status quo of a flood insurance program that crowds out the private sector in order to subsidize insurance premiums for a few Americans at the expense of the rest of the country.
