Joe Manchin actually said...

"Senator Manchin. Thank you, Senator. I appreciate it. First of all, I appreciate both Chairman Wyden and particularly Ranking Member Murkowski, who are both dear friends of mine, for holding this hear..."

"I believe very strongly in the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution. Being a former Governor, I will protect that position until my last breath is taken."

"The ethics is very clear here."

"I can't tell you how much this--how enjoyable this has been, and how much I've learned."
