from Congressman Steve Stockman:
The
press makes no mention of the fact that I serve on the Subcommittee on
Europe, Eurasia, and Emerging Threats. The press wanted me violate the
State Department policy that prohibits Members of Congress traveling
abroad on official business from publicly disclosing their whereabouts.
I was not going to jeopardize the safety of the Congressmen and
Congresswoman I was traveling with. There were five bombings in Egypt
only two days after we were there. While we were in Israel, there were
17 missile strikes and three suspects were arrested for planning to blow
up the U.S. Embassy.

So glad you brought up Big John, there is a good place in the private sector for him and we should do our best to help him get there.
