Mr. President, I think this can be accepted on a voice vote. I have great problems with it, but I think there is probably a majority here that will favor it and a distinct minority perhaps that would not. But it is something which basically doesn't add to the existing law, which says this is theoretically possible, and all this does is say it is possible one could be acquitted of a criminal case and still be held as an enemy combatant.
