On the recordNovember 29, 2011
I urge a ``no'' vote on the Udall amendment. The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Arizona. Mr. McCAIN. Mr. President, I would like to thank all of my colleagues who have engaged in a very important debate. I would also like to say to my friend from Michigan, the chairman, I have observed him for many years debate various issues on the floor of the Senate and in the Armed Services Committee. I have never seen him more eloquent than I have observed in his statements today and throughout this debate. I also appreciate the fact that there are many in his conference who do not agree with the position taken by the chairman, and I especially am admiring of that. I yield.
