following leader remarks, the Senate will be in morning business. The Republicans will control the first 30 minutes and the majority will control the second 30 minutes. We will seek an agreement for the consideration of the nomination of Senator Hagel to be Secretary of Defense during today's session. In addition, sometime this afternoon, we hope to have a vote on the Kayatta nomination to be a circuit court judge for the First Circuit. ____________________

You cannot have a democracy that record 60 percent of the vote on everything. And that’s what the Republicans have done. They have made a mockery of what the Senate should be.
The Republican Party that we now have is not the Republican Party of John Chafee, Mark Hatfield, those people who were really stalwarts in moving the country forward.
The Democratic Party, their vice chairman wears a T-shirt that says we're for open borders.
The country is better off having a real democracy, not a fake democracy. Sixty percent is not a democracy.
