I want to ask the Senator, did he hear the quote by about Governor Bush--there was a question asked about agriculture. Vice President Gore answered the question and it came to Governor Bush. He started talking about using food as a weapon. He made this quote--he said: We have got to stop using food. It hurts the farmers. Does the Senator remember that quote?
