I thank the gentleman for yielding, and I listened to his comments with interest. I want to touch on a number of comments he made, however. First of all, in a very partisan vote from 3 a.m. in the morning until 6 a.m. in the morning, my…

I thank the gentleman from California for those remarks. I want to join him in thanking our colleague, Brian Cooper. I am not sure, Brian, that I adopt the sentiments of the majority leader with respect to what Mr. Thomas could and could…
