“I would like to ask the freshman Republicans to answer a question for me. Did you all not meet with Edward Teller? Did you not meet with Edward Teller, the father of the hydrogen bomb, and did Edward Teller not tell you freshman Republicans, ``You have got to build star wars''? Is that not what this is all about?
