webb. senator demint? >> thank you, mr. chairman. secretary clinton, thank you for the way you have represented us around the world and for being here today. i certainly agree with you that american power is a stabilizing force around the world. and i'm sure you'll agree with me that any perception of american weakness is a destabilizing force around the wor world. we are overextended here at home and maybe tires of intervention that our determination to continue to be a stabilizing force is in question. as i look at your budget and budgets throughout the federal government now, i have to look at it not so much as i once did as what we want to do or what we should do, but we are financially able to do given the fact that probably half of the money that we'll be spending through the state department is either borrowed or printed money. so we have to make that money work for us. and i agree with your priority certainly of facilitating and expediting international business travel, trade, energy supplies, are key to americans' interest.
