Mr. BARRASSO. Point of order, Mr. President. The Senator had not been recognized. The Senator had the floor, the Senator from Louisiana, who had made a proposal, and then I heard some noise in the background, and that was it. I never heard a Senator be recognized, so it sounds to me that no one has been recognized to object.

Mr. BARRASSO. Mr. President, my parliamentary inquiry is a bit different than that. I never heard a Senator recognized from the Chair by the President of the Senate. The President of the Senate--the Senator from Louisiana had the floor. The Presiding Officer said, ``Is there objection?'' at which time, routinely, someone seeks recognition.
