“my sister says of our four siblings, I may be the only true optimist. I am like the kid who got the horse manure for Christmas, and all he could do is run around asking, Where is the pony? In this body on this issue when we look through and sift through the piles and piles of rhetoric, and we look at just the rules, the rules were fair. They are not perfect, but they are better than what was there. I was not familiar with the process they went through, but the right to know you are being investigated, you would want to know that. The right to due process, the concept of a speedy trial and speedy disposition. Members want to talk about partisanship, if it a 5-5 split, that is partisan. The only way we can get bipartisan is if we make it a 6 vote to go forward with an investigation. That is bipartisan. I thought they were good rules when I voted for them the first time. I hope we can move on. I am going to vote for them again. I think they are more fair.”
