The administration is not doing anything in this area. And the previous administration did not do anything in this area.

I would like to ask you, John R. Fernandez, on behalf of this administration, to work with this Committee...

I would like to see if we could get the administration to put together a team and contact and look at the top twenty-five companies, U.S.

I do not think we should do it. That does not create a job. That, I mean, the break down of the American values.

I am very disturbed to see the number of communities and states that are expanding gambling, that are seeking gambling, which brings crime, corruption, break down of the family, etcetera.

I just want to create jobs.

This country is sinking. We are sinking. We are sinking. We have $37 trillion of debt.

Is anybody looking at that? One, do you agree with that number, or you just do not know if that number is accurate?

The execution takes place at 4:00 tomorrow, I mean, what does that mean?

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I had seen figures before that I, were triggered when you said STEM, that the funding for STEM higher education grants is roughly about $700 million and only $350 million was used in 2007.

Well, maybe, at an appropriate time, working with the Chairman, we could put together a model.

I think the research and the development is very important.

I would love to see any Administration put together what I will call a repatriation program whereby we repatriate jobs.

Why do you think jobs are expanding in China, and not in the United States?

There is the sign over the Delaware River from Trenton, New Jersey to Pennsylvania that says 'Trenton Makes and the World Takes'. Trenton does not make anything anymore that I know of.

If you get on a train in Washington and take it up to New York, close your book and do not buy a newspaper and just look off to the right and the left, you will see factories are in decay.

The manufacturing base of our country is eroding pretty rapidly.

Just as a result of the NAPA review?

You have announced your intent to create a NOAA Climate Service. This was done absent any proposal in the fiscal year 2011 budget and absent any of the required notification to the Committee.

It is important to speak out. It is important we have good relations. It is important we trade, but to advocate publicly.

It does trouble me, though, that the insensitivity of the previous administration and of this administration and of this Congress, of the Republicans in this Congress, and of the Democrats in this Congress, the issue of human rights and…

And we just have to do a better job of advocating and connecting with regard to human rights and religious freedom.

Have you ever thought of putting together a repatriation team?

The reality of it is America, if you look at the scores and you look at we used to be number one, now the competition is not only with China and India, but it is in Poland and Hungary and Romania and Bulgaria.

We are neglecting the oceans, I think.
