Let me take just a moment to talk about what we are attempting to do here in the senate. Exaggeration and hyperbole is the order of the day. Say always reluctant to this truly could be one of the most important things we as members of this committee do. What the world is experiencing today, what the United States is facing today, is one of the most significant challenges that a lot of us will face in our lifetime.
