I hope we do not go back to that. This body. as we all know. works on unanimous consent. Any Senator can raise an objection to dispensing with a reading of an amendment or a reading of the record. as we saw during the immigration debate. and can tie up this Senate endlessly if someone wants to impede the work of the Senate. It is my hope we will not descend to that. We have very important matters to take upIraq. the Department of Defense reauthorization bill. the override of the Presidents veto on stem cells. and many appropriations bills.
