We will be opposing this on the basis of the arguments outlined previously. And I would just say to Senator Siewert that although I seem to inflame her on occasions I do not intend to. We are talking about voluntary misconduct here. They are the key words. If people are misbehaving due to their own actions or by their own choice I think that making excuses for them is a very tough thing to do. I say that not to badger you or to get you up to attack me again—I accept your flame from the last time; that is just our position.
