The Rundown Job (2012)

Dennis Adkins: Congressman Jason Yount

Quotes 

• Colonel Michael Vance : Terrorists and other yahoos know what our "rules" are. They know we're big and slow, so they're running smaller, leaner, faster. It's asymmetrical warfare. It's a tactic we need to use.

  Congressman Jason Yount : Colonel Vance, thank you for your testimony.

  Colonel Michael Vance : I just do the same thing with my teams. I throw together the right team for each different threat, while the CIA is still filling out the paperwork.

  Congresswoman Caballo : The committee finds you and all your operations in violation of the inter-agency security act

  Congressman Jason Yount : And therefore illegal under federal law. You slap together another one of your little "asymmetry" teams from federal agents, Colonel Vance, you and everybody around you is out of a job and in jail. These "slow, giant" agencies you mock were designed by very smart people.

  Colonel Michael Vance : So was the Titanic.
