Thank you so much, Phil. That's well spoken from a proud grandfather as well as a father, and certainly brought up the importance of fatherhood as well as these decisions that are coming up from the Supreme Court. You know, the people have spoken on that. The people of California spoke two times, and they said, This is what we think is wise public policy for the families and the citizens of California. And the people spoke on the Defense of Marriage Act through their elected representatives here in Congress, a huge vote, bipartisan. And President Clinton signed the bill. The people have spoken on this. And what we don't want is to have the Supreme Court impose their view or be activists and impose their view of what marriage should be on the citizens who have spoken, so it's going to be interesting to see how they rule. But certainly, I agree with you, Phil, that it's very important that the people have spoken and that we uphold marriage. Next we have a Representative from Oklahoma, a friend of mine, James Lankford, who not only is a great dad and father, but has worked with teenagers for many years and, I'm sure, has seen the importance of fatherhood as it relates to young people. So go ahead, James Lankford.
