                           DISAGREE AGREEABLY

  (Mr. COHEN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. COHEN. Mr. Speaker, we will hear from General Petraeus today and 
tomorrow. I think we all need to reflect, as we will this evening in a 
memorial for the victims of 9/11 and a day like December 7 that will 
live in infamy, that while we may disagree on how we should respond to 
the terrorist threats that we have in the Middle East, that we should 
disagree in an agreeable manner because we are all Americans and no 
matter what position we take, we all want the best for this country. We 
want peace and prosperity, and we want our soldiers to be safe and to 
be supported.
  There were heroes on the airplane in Pennsylvania who tried and did 
deter the terrorists from possibly attacking this building or the White 
House. Their motto was: ``Let's roll.''
  As we remember them, I ask Members on both sides of the aisle if they 
disagree, which we will, to disagree in an agreeable way. Let's roll 
for the American public.
