“I intend to speak about Senator Kennedy at a later time in more depth. Certainly there have been a lot of Senators who have said a quiet little prayer for the complete recovery of Senator Kennedy that would include other colleagues, some of whom we do not even know about. Certainly we know about the recurrence of the cancer in the Senator from Pennsylvania, Mr. Specter. We certainly know of the physical health challenges the President pro tempore, Senator Byrd, is going through. Since this is a Senate family, perhaps the world at large doesn't understand that political differences, just as in a real family, can keep people separated. But when there is a time of need and healing, the family comes together. That is certainly the case in what we feel about Senator Kennedy, Senator Specter, Senator Byrd. But I will be speaking about that later.”
