mr. leerise to speak today in opposition to the nomination of caitlin halligan to be a judge on the u.s. court of appeals for the d.c. circuit. the d.c. circuit is arguably the most important federal appellate court in our federal judicial system. with primary responsibility to review administrative decisions made by countless federal departments and agencies. it is also -- has also served in many instances as a steppingstone for judges who were later appointed to the u.s. supreme court. as a result, the senate has historically very closely scrutinized nominees to the d.c. circuit and when evaluating particular nominees have carefully considered the need for additional judges on that court. in july, 2006, president bush nominated eminently qualified lawyer, peter keisler, to fill a seat on the d.c. circuit. mr. keisler is among the very finest attorneys in the country. because of his nonideological approach to the law, mr. keisler enjoys broad bipartisan support throughout the legal professio

why she's so happy she got the $154 million was when she got pregnant four years ago, her husband, mr. leertion. she refused. she had the baby. she now has a beautiful 3-year-old daughter who her husband has only seen twice. grounds for divorce? this has all come out. what's also come out is that her husband tried to hide a lot of the assets with his father who is a huge property mogul in hong kong and the father himself, not a great role model, in july of this year the father had to pay his mistress many billions for her home. the story continues. but the reality is, this is certainly not the only high-profile divorce. i mean remember rupert murdoch and $1.7 billion? michael jordan was about $150 million. tiger, around $100 million. but in this case, i think well deserved for somebody who has had a lot of difficulty and the judge said, she should live in the manner to which she has become accustomed. >> well, she will be able to keep up with 1 $54 million. >> just the clubs alone, belonging to clubs in hong kong and london, she got about $6 million just for that. >> you got stay with the

mr. lee: mr. president? the presiding officer: the senator from utah. mr. lee: mr. president, i stand today to urge my colleagues to support one of the most important pieces of legislation that has come before this body in decades. senate joint resolution 10, the hatch-lee balanced budget amendment proposal. the reason why i insist this is so important is because of a crisis that we're facing today. we've accumulated about $15 trillion in sovereign debt on behalf of the united states. $15 trillion. it works out to about $50,000 for every man, woman and child in america. this is an amount of money that could represent an expensive car. it could represent a college education. it could represent all kinds of things but it represents ultimately debt that congress has incurred that congress can't afford to continue to incur at this same rate chvment we're doing every -- same rate. which we're doing every day. we're adding to that debt at an unsustainable rate of about $1.5 trillion every single year. here's why that's so distressing to me. as the white house itself has ac

paul, mr. lee, senator udaul, gill brand as well as others will go on this legislation. essentially prohibit the holding of an american citizen or a legal alien resident from being held without charge or trial. i think that's very important. and the only thing that could change that would be an act of congress. and that would be whether we're operational under a declaration of war or an authorization for the use of military force. so -- >> are you disappointed that the white house is willing to go along with this indefinite detention? >> i think there were some changes in the bill that were helpful to getting the white house's support. and that is that the military presumption is still there however the interrogate period is not to be interrupted, as i understand. what the administration has wanted was not unreasonable. it was flexibility. the ability to evaluate somebody once they are arrested and make a decision on the evidence, whether they are charged in federal court or whether they are charged under military law and tried by a military commission. that's the best o
