                      COMMENDING SENATOR FEINGOLD

  Mr. REID. Before my friend from Wisconsin leaves the Chamber, I would 
like to say that I have always been very impressed with the Senator 
from Wisconsin. I may not always agree with him on the issues--but most 
of the time I do--but one reason I am so impressed with him is he is 
always so thorough and has such a conviction about the issue of which 
he speaks. Whether it is an issue dealing with foreign policy or a 
country the name of which most of us have trouble pronouncing, he 
understands what is going on in that country and the human rights 
violations that take place.
  I never had the opportunity to say publicly to my friend from 
Wisconsin how impressed I am with his intellectual capabilities and his 
ability to express them in this Chamber. I do that now and congratulate 
him.
  Mr. FEINGOLD. I thank the Senator very much.
