55. Wait a a minute here - did you hear all of what Rockefeller really said?
Forget what he said during his recitation of the bill's history and points. Go back to his opening statement.

He said that there were two versions of the bill, his (Intel) and the Judiciary version. He said that was proper and that the J-bill had followed his in sequence and would be considered as the first amendment to the Intel-bill. He recommended its approval.

So what's that mean?

It means that even though he defended immunity he also suggested that the version of the bill that didn't include it be passed over his version. In effect he said no immunity.

Did I hear him wrong?
