“We were willing to accept this amendment when the Senator first brought the Predator to the attention of this Congress. I am delighted to see more Predators being bought. This is sort of a premature type of advance. These monies would have been requested anyway for 2007, but we checked with the Department and they are willing to proceed with it now. I urge the adoption of the amendment, and I yield back the remainder of my time.”
