Mr President, I would like to respond to that point of order except I do not know what it was. For half a dozen times in a row Rumpole over there has stood up and decided to just give a speech, and you have Senator Heffernan interjecting while pretending to raise points of order. Mr President, I ask you to not only rule out these points of order but also ask them to actually raise a point of order before they start giving a speech.
