“it is a pleasure to join both of my colleagues, the gentleman from Texas, Judge Carter, who is managing the hour with the gentleman from California that you just heard from, Mr. Speaker, my colleague, Representative Rohrabacher, who very passionately explained what the issue is. You know, and again, I think as I represent the 640,000 or so constituents of the 11th District of Georgia, West Georgia, great, great people. And when I go home, and I am sure Representatives Carter and Rohrabacher are hearing the same thing from their constituents, they say and I agree, that this is a country of law abiding people. And we have to have respect for the rule of law. I was real interested, Mr. Speaker, this weekend on one of the Sunday morning news shows, one of our colleagues, in fact, indeed one of my colleagues from Georgia, Representative Norwood, who is such a great spokesperson on this issue was debating one of the Senators who happened also to be from the Southeast, in regard to the Senate bill versus the Sensenbrenner, very sensible, as the name would have it, the legislation that we passed in the House before the first of the year that emphasizes border security and border security first.…”
