Byron Dorgan: “let me see if we can clear this up without taking more substantial time. Senator Isakson wants to speak for 10 minutes…”

“let me see if we can clear this up without taking more substantial time. Senator Isakson wants to speak for 10 minutes in morning business. We decided following that Senator Murray would be recognized. She sought 15 minutes to speak on her amendment. Following that, Senator Akaka was to have been recognized for 10 minutes. At that point, before Senator Kerry came in, we had indicated the Senator from Ohio would be recognized, and then Senator Kerry from Massachusetts has asked to be recognized without a time limit. The one thing that is unclear to me is how much time the Senator from Ohio wishes. I know he wants to speak on his amendment. The PRESIDING OFFICER. No more than 10 minutes.”
