Quotes

“The Attorney General acquitted himself well while he jumped through the hoops he was asked to jump through. Short of asking him to stand on one foot and sing the Star Spangled Banner, I don’t know what else the Democrats will require in their quest to create a scandal where none exists.” - referring to the House Judiciary Committee hearings on the firing of US Attorneys.
