To sort of end this colloquy--and I know Senator McCain and Senator Menendez wish to speak--I fully support every comment that has been made by the Senators from Connecticut and South Carolina. I am not associating myself with the comments of the Senator from Kentucky, which the Senator from South Carolina alluded to. I would love for the Senator from South Carolina to insert that language into it, regarding the fact this is not an authorization for the use of force. But I want to say that is not because I don't support exactly the sentiments being laid out here. I do. I just want us to continue. I want the Senate to be a part of any action that might take place. Hopefully it won't. But if we end up with kinetic activity, I want us involved in that so as a Nation we go forward--if that occurs--in a unified way. What I don't want is for us to end up where we have in the past, having partisan disputes. With that, I yield the floor. Mr. McCAIN. Would the Senator yield for a question? The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator from Arizona. Mr. McCAIN. Isn't it true that the President of the United States said that it was ``unacceptable'' for the Iranians to have a nuclear weapon? I have a series of questions.
