Robert Dornan

no one has been more of an expert on the rules of the House than the gentleman in the Chair. Out of my respect for him on one of his 2 last days, I am going to accede to that. However, I am entitled to tell every Member of Congress and…

this letter I have put in the Congressional Record maybe 12 times over the years. I have discussed with the parliamentarians whether the term ``draft dodger'' is a pejorative term or whether it is a historical statement of fact, like drunk…

With J.P. Hammerschmidt, who beat Clinton at his only other attempt at Federal office in 1974, beat him by 6,600 votes. Thirty years, 1966 to 1996. A whole decade more than Bob Walker. I have just loved serving with you. And you put the…

let me recall two things from this trip, to give the audience a flavor of how this is coming from deep in my heart. I do not want to come out as a blubbering baby, when I already admitted that Colonel Holmes made me cry at his dinner table…

Then they had a table of ID cards, and you will recall, I picked up one. My air officer number changed later, they changed the letters in the front. It was 3038271. This is before they went to Social Security numbers. I picked up this card…

I also want to come to the well this afternoon and commend the Speaker for the next 2 days, the Honorable Robert Walker of the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. He came to this Congress in our bicentennial year as I did, an unusual…

Would the term ``student deferment,'' thousands of people, including leaders in both Chambers, have taken student deferments honorably when it looked like the war was winding down. I understand in the Second World War, people would spit…

we are talking about dead heroes here, and missing men who may be alive. I would hope the Chamber would be as quiet as a church, and that includes our wonderful guides in the gallery, who are carrying on a narration. I know you are a great…

Wow. Mr. Bilbray you were as eloquent tonight as last night, and I hope all of America on Saturday clicks on C-SPAN. I hope the great Mac Collins of Georgia is in the Chair and that we have America watching a merciful, fair, reasonable…

General Montgomery has gone to Hanoi itself, has argued eyeball to eyeball in the 1970's starting, chaired a commission, has given so much time as he has to every aspect of military life, all services, and has been properly rewarded by…

I am going to do my tribute to the chosen few, and then the pro-life closing statement for me, and there is another gentleman who will get to close out the last special order, probably, unless something goes wrong tomorrow and this whole…

Only the words medieval barbarity, inquisition, or Nazi or Japanese warlord prison camps, can conjure up the image of what was done to this Member of Congress and 10 other men who stood up to the Communist brutality in Hanoi, and were…

We will fix some of that language silliness next year. We touched on it some this year, but it is going to take a conservative, thoughtful, heartful Congress doing it, and we will do it.

For not being a shy, retiring type. But I just saw you do something that makes me feel not limp-wristed, but not as tough as I thought I was, because you challenged the Parliamentarian, and you were right. Our great Speaker up here, the…

So title V says it is a Federal failure to control our borders and, therefore, we all want to be merciful, but it is the Federal responsibility.

Thank you. I said Hillary. She is not protected by rule XVIII. Only Mr. Al Gore and Mr. Bill Clinton. Hillary, I can talk about Roger Clinton being a cocaine addict for the next solid hour. I can even quote what he said about his brother…

If I could just have 10 seconds, did you notice the front page of the most truthful paper calls it a curt letter with a small ``c.'' First, I looked and I said, hey, Curt's name should be capitalized here. They meant it was a rather brief…

I want to see the same firestorm in the press about Clinton threatening to shut down the Government over giving Social Security to illegal immigrants, and demanding that we use up tens of thousands of schoolteachers like my brother Dick to…

There are 185 nations in the United Nations, 7 that are not, Switzerland by choice, a few islands, Tonga and Nauru and a few other island nations, and the Vatican City, which is not a member of the United Nations, but of the 185 nations in…

There is a handful of people who do want to circle the wagons, seal the country up, forget that we are a nation of immigrants, and I am tired of the liberal part of the news media going after them for quotes. They are not part of the…

Her name was not Sheila, was it? That is what they called all those beautiful war brides then.

In less than a month, more people can die, good citizens, coming to North America for a dream, a percentage coming to rob cars, three cars stolen in L.A. in Orange County, and we found one of them on a hill in Tijuana only partially…

then let me deviate in the remaining few moments to point out the headline--these are public issues--the headline of yesterday's Washington Times: ``In Jail, McDougal Plays Media Queen,'' is cocky. In Dayroom 212 of Pod B of the Faulker…

Today I was told, without a direct phone call, what we still have here, as they said in the movie, is a failure to communicate... one human being at the north end of this building, gutted it out and referred to people like myself, who have…
