Richard -- known as Rick -- graduated from Anderson High School in 1996, where he excelled in football and wrestling. Eileen Arnold, a counselor at Anderson High School, first met Rick when he was a freshman. "He stood out in my mind because he was fun-loving, outgoing, and energetic," she recalled. "I had the sense he wanted to do something special with his life. He was never afraid to speak his mind and was never hesitant. He didn't go along just to go along." Indeed, Rick did want to do something special with his life, and he joined the Marine Corps immediately after high school. Patsy Hager, mother of Rick's childhood friend Wally, said:

John Morgan, Jr., and Rick played on the same soccer team when the boys were 4 years old, and the two have remained friends. Rick gave John his spare dog tag the day he joined the military, and John has carried it around on his keychain ever since. He described Rick as "fearless." But, Rick was also a caring and compassionate individual. For portions of his childhood, he and his mother lived with his grandparents, Ann and Don Lesher. When Rick was stationed with the marines in North Carolina, he would buy wood, haul it home to Ohio, and chop it for his grandparents so they could use it to heat their home. "He adored his grandparents," his mom said.

When the war began in Iraq, however, Rick was eager to give up the safety of his recruiter's job for a combat position. After preparing so many young marines to make the journey to Iraq, he felt compelled to go over, himself, and serve beside them. He only had the chance to serve 3 months before he was killed by a roadside bomb during combat operations. Although his time in Iraq was short, he left a lasting impression on those with whom he served. Fellow marine and friend Josh Williams wrote the following after Rick's death:

In his civilian life, Rick enjoyed painting his own cars and thought about going to culinary school after he finished his service in the military. But, there was one passion in his life that far outweighed all the rest -- and that was his family -- his wife and son Cliff. Rick's mother Lynn recalled that "he was a fantastic father. He was dedicated and adored his son. Cliff looks just like him." There is no doubt that all those who loved Rick will make sure Cliff knows what a courageous and remarkable man his father was.

This is how Rick will be remembered, Mr. President: as a loving father, devoted husband, loyal son, caring grandson, and brave marine. My wife Fran and I continue to keep his family in our thoughts and in our prayers.

Mr. President, before Senator DeWine leaves the floor, he was speaking of a loss that he and his family and others are mourning, I presume in Ohio, where I spent a number of years as an undergraduate at Ohio State University. I would associate myself with his remarks in extending our sympathies from Delaware. We received some devastating news of our own in Delaware a day or two ago with the news that Army SGT Keith Fiscus had been killed in action in Iraq at the age of 26. Our hearts go out to him. I will be talking more about him later.

There is a loss that we mourn as well, not the loss of a life here in the Senate, but the loss of Senator DeWine who will be returning to Ohio and to other challenges in the days ahead. Senator DeWine and I were elected to the House of Representatives in 1982. We came here together with people such as John McCain, Tom Ridge, John Kasich, Harry Reid, Barbara Boxer, Dick Durbin, and John Spratt, a remarkable freshman class in the House of Representatives. It was the year we elected a lot of Democrats and not nearly as many Republicans. Somehow, then, Congressman DeWine managed to swim against the tide and to be elected against those odds in Ohio.

He served as a Congressman of distinction, later as the State's Lieutenant Governor where he trained George Voinovich, who served as Governor, and then to be elected to the Senate. It was my privilege to serve with him in the House of Representatives and it has been a privilege to serve with him in the Senate.

I thank my colleague, who has pointed out to my colleagues in the Senate that he and I came here together in the election of 1982 and came to the House in 1983. We have been dear friends ever since. I will miss working with him. He is someone who I believe exemplifies what this institution is all about, and that is getting things done, working in a bipartisan way, making a difference. He has done that and will continue to do that.

Mr. President, I wish to talk about a couple of things, if I may. In about 15 or 20 minutes, the Senate will vote on the confirmation of a judge. The President has seen fit to nominate District Court Judge Kent Jordan, who serves in Delaware, to succeed Judge Jane Roth who has served for more than a dozen years as a judge on the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. Judge Roth announced early this year that she was going to take senior status, and she has done that. I will talk a little bit about her, and then I will talk about Judge Kent Jordan.

Judge Roth, whom I have been privileged to know for almost as long as I have been in Delaware, whose husband served here in the Senate for some 30 years and was my predecessor, typifies everything a judge ought to be -- smart, knows the law, adheres to the law, uncommonly fairminded, treats those who come before her, whether they are on either side of an argument, with respect, has a reputation for providing judicial temperament, a forum where justice can occur. She is somebody who works hard, somebody who has a wonderful sense of humor. Sometimes when people don those black robes, they turn in their sense of humor, but she has never lost hers.

Prior to that, she served in the foreign service for our country. I believe she served in places such as Iran, and we could probably use her expertise and counsel these days. She served in Rhodesia and in the Republic of the Congo. She married Bill Roth along the way, raised two children, and somehow managed to do it all with grace and aplomb. She continues to serve us as the senior judge of the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. We are lucky she does, and we are grateful to her for that service and to her family for sharing with all the people of the country, not just of Delaware, a remarkable human being.

We are grateful for her service and think of her today as we consider the nomination of her successor Kent Jordan.

I have known Kent Jordan not for as long as Judge Roth, but I have known him. He served on the district court in Delaware for some time. Delaware is a little State. You know almost everybody, if you want to. I have had a chance to get to know him and his family. I think he has earned very high marks as our district court judge, much as Judge Roth did when she was our district court judge.

When I was privileged to be Governor of the State for some 8 years, I nominated a lot of people to serve on the bench. Among the qualities I looked for was people who knew the law, who had good judgment, who were able to make decisions. Sometimes people, frankly, find it hard to make a decision. As a judge, that is not a good thing. You want somebody who knows the law and somebody who has good judgment, who is able to make decisions and follows the golden rule in the way the people treat who come before them, who provides good judicial temperament and a forum, a courtroom, where justice will more likely than not be served.

He, as Judge Roth, has been a parent, raised a family. I am not sure if I have the right number, but I think he and his wife have raised five or six, maybe seven children. So they have had a lot going on at home, with schools and all kinds of extracurricular activities.

He served before that in a number of other challenging situations. We had a little debate today and there was a cloture vote on whether we were going to vote on Judge Jordan's nomination. Nobody should somehow interpret that vote and the fact that we had to vote on cloture as any question about his integrity, competence, ability, and willingness to serve. He will be a great addition to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals.

We will vote in about 15 minutes on Kent Jordan's nomination. I hope my colleagues will join me -- and I know I speak for Senator Biden in urging our support -- unanimous support for this nomination. He has not disappointed us in anything he has ever done, and I am sure he will not disappoint any of us in this regard either. He has received, by the way, from the American Bar Association -- every now and then we talk about the ratings they hand out with respect to nominees. His unanimous rating was "well qualified," which is the highest possible grade. It was a unanimous rating. I think that speaks for itself.

In addition to having served as a district court judge for the last 4 years, he also clerked for a legend in our part of the country, District Court Judge James Latchum. Once he graduated from law school, he became an assistant U.S. attorney for the Delaware District. He has done great things with his life. He has a lot of integrity and great energy. I hope he will be rewarded for those things later today. We will be voting in a very short while.

The reason I bring that up is that I am disappointed that we are going to finish business this year and not provide for a strong, independent regulator for Government-sponsored enterprises such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the Federal Home Loan Banks. That has not been questioned -- with respect to the way they operate, the accuracy of the financial reporting. Great questions have been raised over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and as we have seen in yesterday's newspaper, there was a huge restatement of earnings.

I think it is unfortunate that we are not going to be able to conclude with a vote on legislation that some people have spent a lot of time working on in the last year or two. The House of Representatives has passed -- not unanimously but by a wide margin -- legislation that would provide for a strong, independent regulator for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The Senate ended up breaking down along party lines in the Senate Banking Committee on similar kinds of legislation. We passed out a bill on party lines. It never came up on the floor. In the last month or two, there has been an encouraging discussion and negotiation between Congressmen Barney Frank and Mike Oxley, his staff, and the folks at the Treasury Department, under the direction of Secretary Hank Paulson, to try to narrow the differences between the bill reported out by our committee with only Republican support and the bill that passed with bipartisan support in the House. We have not been able to resolve all of our differences, but progress has been made in the last month. I want to say to both Congressman Frank and Congressman Oxley -- who is leaving, as well, at the end of this year, so he will not have a chance to push this ball into the end zone next year but certainly Congressman Frank will be in a position to do that. He will chair the relevant committee in the House. I think great work has been done and good progress has been made.

It is unfortunate that we are not going to complete the job this week. I think we teed the ball up for next month. I hope one of the first things we will do in the Senate Banking Committee is hold hearings and look at the negotiations that have taken place between the House and the Treasury Department and see if we cannot build on those and pass legislation -- find common cause with the House of Representatives and the administration and pass the legislation.

Until we do that, there are a couple things that are going to be occurring. One, we are going to have uncertainty for the enterprises, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and those who are thinking about selling their stock. There will be an impact on the housing market as well. We don't need that. The regulator for these entities will not have bank- regulator-like powers. This regulator needs that. These entities need a regulator that has bank-regulator-like powers. The regulator will not be independent, and we need legislation which would create a strong, independent regulator. Mission and new product authority will continue to be separate; they should not be. Capital requirements will not be flexible; they should be. Growth of these two enterprises will go largely unconstrained.

Having said that, there is a lot of progress that has been made. If we go back a year or so, we had large differences where folks in the Senate were on a path forward with respect to a strong, independent regulator for Government-sponsored enterprises. We agree on combining the regulator for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac with the Federal Finance Board, which regulates the Federal Home Loan Banks. We agree on that now.

The question of the independent regulator from the appropriations process, we agree on that -- that the regulator should be independent of the appropriations process. We also agree that the independent litigation authority for the regulator should be provided. Currently, they have to go through the Department of Justice, and I think we have all come to agree that is not the best course, and the regulator ought to have independent litigation authority. We decided the regulator has to have the power to put them into receivership if, God forbid, the worst should occur. We agree on that today. We have agreed on combined mission oversight and new product authority under one world class regulator, something that a month or a year or so ago we didn't have common cause on. We agree today that the regulator ought to have flexibility for setting capital standards -- the Congress setting standards for risk or minimum capital standards. We should invest in the regulator's authority.

We agree that there ought to be restrictions on the size of the portfolios of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. We are talking about hundreds of billions of dollars, literally, portfolios that exceed a trillion dollars. That is a lot of money. Enterprises of this size, because of the effect they can have on financial markets here and around the world, deserve a world-class regulator. We want to make sure they get that. That should be an early item of business next January.

Joe Biden

But before I talk about Judge Jordan, allow me to say a few words about the Judge whom Judge Jordan is nominated to replace. This spring, Judge Jane Roth informed the President that she would be taking senior status. Judge Roth has been a stellar presence on the Federal bench; she has served her country with dignity, wisdom and distinction. She is dedicated to the rule of law, and her representation of our State on the court of appeals has brought nothing but distinction to Delaware.

Judge Jordan began his legal career with a clerkship in the chambers of Judge Latchum, a pillar of the bar in Wimington. He went on to serve as an assistant U.S. attorney, working on some highly publicized cases and bringing some really bad characters to justice.
