I can confirm the contentious meeting. In fact, I can confirm that the Senator from Delaware was present in many contentious meetings, not only with President Bush but others. Those were the meetings where some light was shed. I was interested to note the generational difference by the Senator from Delaware, and he indeed associated himself with the Vietnam war. I would choose to associate myself with the Persian Gulf war.

I believe that if the Court were televised, there would be an understanding and an accountability.
Because it is so important for the public to know how its Government functions, and because the Supreme Court affects the lives of Americans in such great detail.
I cannot applaud Rutland enough, because we had a similar hearing a few years ago when Senator Arlen Specter and I were here, and that shaped a number of federal programs for the better because of what we heard from you.
We are trying to make sure that we have maximum impact in the places that could use the money the most.
