Thank you very much, Congresswoman and Leader Pelosi. I'll say, ``Speaker.'' Is that okay? We thank you for your leadership. We thank you for your remarks. We have a couple of additional members of our caucus who would like to speak. I think we've claimed the next hour. I believe that it will be available. We're out of time at this point, so I will simply wrap up with these three or four words, which are: It is with gratitude that I and my colleagues congratulate all who were involved in bringing to justice Osama bin Laden. A job well done. Mission accomplished. Thank you very much, Mr. Speaker. I yield back the balance of my time. ____________________
