know that i have deeply hurt and disappointed my wife, darlene, my children, my family, friends are mustaf, and all of those who believed in me. to all of them, especially my wife, i am truly sorry. i am truly blessed to have a wife like darlene, who has found it in her heart to forgive me. last year we sought counseling, and through the strength of family and friends, we have rebuilt our marriage to where it is stronger than ever. i will not mention any names, but the woman i was involved with and her husband were both close friends, and they both worked for me. our families were very close. that closeness put me in a situation during a very difficult time in my marriage, which led to my inappropriate behavior. we caused deep pain to both families. for that i am truly sorry. i am committed to my service in the united states senate, and my work on behalf of the people of nevada. i will not be taking any questions, thank you. >> july 4th weekend on book tv, discover and unfamiliar side of our nation's first president as we are live from george washington's not vernon estate with a story and
