As the Senator knows, he cannot give up those documents. He has no control over them. And the administration will not and neither would any other administration. Would the Senator be willing to get the Democrats to agree to an up- and-down vote if we had one more day of hearings where the Senators could ask additional questions? I am not saying we are going to do that, I am just saying would we have an up-and-down vote. We cannot produce those documents because they are privileged. I think the Senator knows that. But if you had one more day of hearings where you could ask the questions, could we get the Democrats to agree to an up-and-down vote if you did that? I cannot say I can do that, but I certainly would look at it.
