“Just quickly, to follow up what Mr. Skelton has talked about, the Defense authorization bill was signed, and here is what I read in CQ: ``House Armed Services Chairman Duncan Hunter confirmed through a spokesman that he inserted the provision,'' this is totally extraneous, apparently, if that happened after the signatures, ``at the behest of House leadership.'' And this is a quote: `` `Hunter reserves the right to support the leadership team,' said Harald Stavenas, his spokesman.'' Get the authorization bill on the floor.”
