On the recordApril 28, 2004
I notice that today we have a number of schoolchildren watching the proceedings. It is always great to have people here watching in on us and watching what we do and hopefully keeping us accountable. I hope they realize and appreciate the greatness of the Senator from West Virginia and his wisdom and counsel. I hope they also will recall the teaching in the Bible about respecting your elders. I can say that there is no Senator in this body that we, the body, have more respect for than the Senator from West Virginia. So we thank him for those comments.
