"I will continue to work so they get the tools and the resources necessary."

"I am concerned, though, that rather than lead in a positive way, this office has reacted in a way that is contrary to the President's transparency promise."

"I think that is a real accomplishment in the politicized world that Washington is today."

"I believe you need more staff to carry this out, because I think--again, I do not care whether you have a Republican or Democratic administration."
