Two things that we did not mention that were also part of the Six in '06 agenda were ethics reform and the PAYGO rules. Mr. Altmire, I know you have been a supporter of both of those things. We had a culture of corruption hanging over this institution and over this Capitol, and we were able to adopt some ethics rules that make sure that we can restore the American people's confidence in their government again. That is what our freshman class on the Democratic side ran on. One of the issues that they ran on was making sure that they could inspire their constituents to believe in what we are doing here again.
