Should Ms. Martin clear the vote of the full Senate, as I understand she must, then I will accept her appointment and welcome her aboard the Commission.

stoneflynut, thanks for being a sport and for also being willing to look into the history of some of the more recent nominations offered by Lori, er, uh, Janet Napolitano.

And to Larry Audsley, my personal apologies for all of the cross-fire you've endured in your efforts to support the most qualified person for the Commission. You've remained a gentleman throughout the mud-slinging, and for that, I am grateful.
