  Mr. REID. I commend the Republican leader for his willingness to work 
with us in getting an agreement where we debated two stem cell bills. I 
also would be remiss if I did not mention the primary individuals who 
were here during most, if not all, of that debate: Senators Harkin, 
Specter, Brownback, Coleman, and Isakson. They conducted the debate in 
a manner which shows Members can disagree and not be disagreeable. 
Although there were different points of view, the debate was clearly 
very informative and educational.
  Also, we just entered an order allowing the Senate to consider the 
Intelligence authorization bill on Monday. There will be a cloture vote 
on that bill at 5:30 p.m. on Monday.
  The Senate will not be in session on Friday. Therefore, there will be 
no rollcall votes.
