The comments of the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Brown) jarred loose one of the comments that I did not make in my informal remarks but I do have written in my formal remarks. But for those people once again that are listening at home I would just like to tell them that under Chapter 10 in CAFTA you can expect any Federal law that we make in the future, that we pass in the future, any State law that is presently in existence or that we pass in the future, any local law that presently is in existence or that we pass in the future, we are going to have to conform with the CAFTA statute at minimum, because without doing so then we are going to be in violation once again of our CAFTA agreement. And once again we are turning our future, our economic future, our trading future over to the World Bank and to the United Nations. I thank the gentleman for helping me make that point.
