Mr. Baker talked about the dynamics of the senate, the relationship chewing former senator bob dole and president nixon, and is on roll on the Senate Watergate committee and as president reagans chief of staff. This is just under an hour. You are in the senate and the house . Lets know, that was my father. The senate that you came into, how does that compare to the senate today . I was avoided answering that question has i try not to secondguess those who followed me. In all fairness, you do not know the Senate Unless youre there. You could lose the touch. It would appear that from outside, things are tougher now than they were and more personal, and more confrontational. But i cannot say that because im not there. Described the senate that you walked into. The senate that i walked into in 1967 was still a senate populated by large measure by the grand girls of dukes. Grand dukes. And those that have gone and made such a name for themselves, fulbright. I approached the matter as the yo
Years under this rule, under that philosophy. Unbelievable. It worked through wars, it worked through the 1918 flu pandemic. It worked through a tax on our nation, 9 11 and pearl harbor. Somehow, some way, great men and women came into this chamber and figured out a way to make this body work. Until two weeks ago when by sheer political force, the majority pulled out a pandoras box, the nuclear option. Now, i would ask, madam president , for my colleague from nebraska to offer her thoughts on this, and as a new member, i look forward to watching you as the senior senator from nebraska.

And do you worry that whats going to happen is it wont just stop here, it will be Supreme Court appointments at some point, it will be legislative activity . Id love to hear those thoughts. Mrs. Fischer madam presi
Quorum call quorum call a senator madam president . The presiding officer the senator from indiana. Mr. Coats madam president , the presiding officer senator, the senate is in a quorum call. Mr. Coats i ask unanimous consent that the call of the quorum be dispensed with. The presiding officer without objection. Mr. Coats madam president , were now in about the third day, i think, of a somewhat tortured process that was the result of a power grab that has changed the tradition of the United States senate, a tradition which was held for about 225 years. Republicans are frustrateed with the attempts successful made by the Democrat Party under its leader to change the rules, break the rules to change the rules, and so we end up with no rule, no rule relative to protecting the rights of the minority. Now, i know its easy for those who have been elected in recent years that have never served in the minority because they simply dont have the experience of what its like to be subject to a lead
And said my fellow senators, i have thought about this, i have contemplated it, maybe i have even prayed about it, and i believe the day has arrived to end slavery in the United States. And i will be attaching an amendment to every bill to end that horrific practice. Ill bet they were a very lonely United States senator at that point in our history. But im also guessing that that senator and tenacious other senators along the way exercised their rights as a minority and as an individual United States senator to continue to force that issue. What a courageous, remarkable thing to do. So lets think about where were headed here. We now have a precedent, and as bob byrd points out in his writings, precedents voted on by United States senators have significant binding effect in this body. Its not something you do one time, tear up and throw away. Its something that becomes a part of the heart and soul of this body. It is something that is a method of operation, a rule, if you will, by which
