the cattle ranch there is one of the oldest in the west indies. the proposed part -- the diverse and undisturbed natural resources of the site include the most substantial black mangrove stand left in the virgin islands. sea turtle northwesting areas, large and healthy coral reefs, and a lagoon that is home to many different species of birds and other wildlife. congress authorized the special resource study for this area in 26. the national park service has completed all the work for that study and found that the area meets all applicable criteria for significance, suitability, and feasibility for designation as a national park service unit. the proposed park would include 2,900 acres of a privately owned ranch land as well as 8,600 acres of submerged land owned by the government of the virgin islands. the family which owns a majority of the site has fought off aggressive developers for years. seeking instead to have their land preserved for future generations to enjoy. this legislation includes no direct spending and any land acquisition will be

to her family that is here with us, we stand here to salute a dedicated friend, an indy spenceable memberd a very innovative spirit about her and about the commonsense solutions that we are trying to arrive at here to address the challenges of the people that we represent. her sage advice and counsel made her an invaluable resource to our members each and every day and frankly to this institution. she'll be in our thoughts every day as we pass legislation that empowers individuals and lifts the american spirit. paula was particularly concerned about the working families in her beloved state of michigan. almost daily, we would hear in leadership meetings and conference meetings about the plight of the manufacturing workers who would see nothing but closed up factories and question their future. paula was there for them. paula's life was cut way -- cut short way too soon. we will, mr. leader, all miss her terribly, but we will find strength, determination, and inspiration in the example she set for all of us. all of us, i guess, can learn for from this when it's all said and done, what's mo

at my sense as the debate went on, and this is often the case, indies really difficult on going quite a long debate, there's always a period of which uses deeper public engagement in them, reflection upon and. it is now sort of reaching the stage of massive opposition and hostility. it's true there was opposition and hostility. there was also support. i think there still is. but there just wasn't that much speck in the work he did on presentation and communication, and i know this is a topic that you are concerned with, how did you assess, and how did you deal with the relative impact on the public mind of the threatens of weapons of mass destruction where at one point you said there was word and the public mind on wmd on the other hand what you call the unrivaled barbarity of saddam's regime itself. what was the balance between these two? >> i think they went together. all the time. yes, it's true that when, if you look at what is in 1441 and the arguments of the prime minister's at the time, it was about disarming saddam hussein with his weapons of mass destruction. but to other iss
