On the recordNovember 22, 2003

I am deeply grateful to these two fine Senators for the kind words they have just spoken, Senator Durbin and Senator Sarbanes. I will go to my everlasting resting place with love and gratitude and affection and admiration and respect for these two Senators and how they have served the Nation and this institution and been loyal and true to the Constitution of the United States forever. I shall think of them and be in their debt. I thank the Senator.
