Mr. Chairman, we have a representative here from Military Family Services. Colonel Mann just took some time to explain to members of this committee what his organization does, the support that they mean to provide to servicemen and women, and families, not just after the fact but preventative as well. I am frankly offended by the fact that the member opposite is suggesting that I can't ask this question or that Colonel Mann can't answer the question. As a result of the way this man who I'm talking about, this member of the military, has been dealt with, this gentleman and his family are suffering at levels that nobody around this table would perhaps have any experience with.
I don't know why it is that we can't hear from Colonel Mann without having a member of the government try to coach his response and suggest that it's not appropriate.
