I must say the gentleman's comments are very, very appropriate. I am taking a group of 16 Members over to Iraq this weekend to begin to try to lay the foundation for a better understanding of what is happening there by Americans; but to have this kind of outrageous presentation on the floor, which could very well tempt kooks in the world to do things that otherwise they would never think of doing, is absolutely not acceptable.
