On the recordSeptember 27, 2006
Chairman Hunter, I want to thank you for entering into this colloquy with me and for your work on this provision and the legislation as a whole. I would also like to thank the President. He said he would work with the House and the Senate. He has done that. Chairman, you have done that. I want to thank Senator Lindsey Graham for having done that. Let me just share to all of my colleagues that I do believe this is a good product, Chairman Hunter; and I want to let everybody know and understand that. This Code of Military Commissions, it has a good balance. You have struck that.
