actions. do you think issa got away with this? >> i do. i think it's very unfortunate that anybody could get away with this kind of activity. in order for us to function, ed, we've got to have some type of a way we can get along. there has to be rules and there are rules. those rules must be adhered to. one of the main rules is you want to make sure that the minority has a chance to assert its views. and in this instance, chairman issa makes a decision, goes against the rules and basically shuts off the mike. that is not the first time, ed, he has done that. he did it to one of my colleagues, congressman tierney a few weeks ago. just shut it down. and i ree minded him that each one of us represent over 700,000 people, and that is not american. it's not way we do it in america.
