Reserving the right to object, Mr. President---- The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection has already been heard.

Before my friend from Wyoming leaves the floor, let me just say I can identify with the things he has said, and to prove it, let me put this up here. These are my 20 kids and grandkids. While maybe he has his name they have given him, my…

Let me make one last comment. I think the Senator from Massachusetts is right that we have covered enough of this tonight. There are some things that would be worth going into in a closed session. One thing that doesn't have to be in a…

Mr. President, let me make a couple of comments and observations. I know the Senator from Massachusetts started out by saying we have to take someone's word for it. My concern is, and I agree with his statement in reference to quotes that…

At this time, I yield to the Senator from Wyoming on a subject of far greater significance than anything we have been talking about. I yield to the Senator from Wyoming to discuss something.

Mr. President, we have another amendment that is up that I think is very significant. It is one having to do with verification. I think if we look at all of the problems we are trying to address with amendments--we have been talking about…

Mr. President, I will yield for a moment for an announcement from the Senator from Montana. (The remarks of Mr. TESTER are printed in today's Record under ``Morning Business.'') ____________________

Mr. President, I respond by saying that I will object to a time agreement at this time. Several people, including the Senator from Arizona, want to speak on this amendment. That might create a problem because of his activity on this…

I thank the Senator from Massachusetts. Following the disposition of the Risch amendment, we will be scheduling my amendment No. 4833 having to do with verification and numbers of inspections. I will be wanting to speak on this. I don't…

I ask unanimous consent that the reading of the amendment be dispensed with. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. Without objection, it is so ordered. The amendment is as follows: (Purpose: To increase the number of Type One and Type Two…

Well, there are two motions. I am objecting to the discussion of the amendment at this time, until we find out how long it will be.

First of all, Mr. President, we have a couple of votes today on things we should have been addressing for a long period of time in order to get to the bottom of them, and one is the DREAM Act. I think the Senator from Alabama did a…

Mr. President, it is my understanding that I have 10 minutes, and I would like to ask the Chair to let me know when I have 1 minute remaining. The ACTING PRESIDENT pro tempore. The Chair will so notify.

Mr. President, reserving the right to object, can the Senator amend that to include me for 10 minutes following his remarks?

Mr. President, I have been here and have listened to the two previous speakers. Let me echo and agree with the remarks made by the Senator from Wyoming about the Senator from Arizona. I serve as his second ranking member of the Armed…

Mr. President, I compliment the Senator from Massachusetts for his endurance. I appreciate that. I have to say also to the Senator from Indiana, my good friend, I am kind of in a unique position as one who serves on both the Armed Services…

Mr. President, as we look at the bill we are going to be voting on today, it is an interesting perspective if you are outside of America looking at it. Here is what people are saying. You are going to stimulate the economy with a 2-percent…

Mr. President, I move to suspend rule XXII, including any germaneness requirements, for the purposes of proposing and considering amendment No. 4765, and I ask for the yeas and nays. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator's motion is pending…
