Thank you for your passion, and I would ask that we spend the rest of this day dealing with this.

I hope is that the issues we just discussed... we can keep at it today and see if we can't find a way to yes.

For too long, the seats have not been filled, and not been filled properly.

Well, there is a good compromise out there, and I think if we are smart and don't give up today, we will find it.
