On the recordMay 25, 2005

I appreciate the comment of the Democratic leader. We have agreed on the schedule for the week, and it is really to get to the Bolton nomination as soon as we possibly can. He is talking to Senators on his side, and I have to talk to some on our side. We are both eager to get on to the nomination, which we plan to do today. I appreciate the Democratic leader coming to encourage us along. We will work things out here shortly on the plans to proceed to the Bolton nomination after the Owen nomination. ____________________
