Now, i have to tell you, i listened to the president and to the excuses that come out of the administration and i think with the Supreme Court decision in nebraska today the president is out of excuses. Hes out of excuses. Hes run the gamut on it. No more excuses. It is time that we pass it, the senate pass it and that this legislation go to the president s desk. One of my colleagues said that being here on the floor today is a waste of time. I really disagree with that, mr. Chairman.
