Because we think it's time to put people ahead of the special interests, Democrats are for fixing it now.

Under the Bush administration and Republican Congress, the special interests and their lobbyists are writing our laws and reaping the benefits.

We have a lot to run on.

We still live in a time where people feel threatened, and the Democrats have been at a disadvantage on this issue, and for them to make progress they have to address it.

I think that accepting an artificial time limit on this particular inquiry would be about as foolish as the Democrats who controlled the Watergate committee felt the same thing would be.

Democrats believe it's time for the President to stop dropping the ball, and to start implementing a more comprehensive strategy to fight the war on terror.
