We\u2019re just ecstatically proud. We got the note last night that this was going to be done by unanimous consent today, and I wanted to share this with everybody because we in the family are very, very proud of this. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Ladies and gentlemen, please indulge me here as I interrupt today\u2019s excursion into broadcast excellence for a personal moment, one of great pride, joy, and happiness for all of the members of my family.
