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…

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…

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…

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.

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…

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

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.

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…

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…

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…

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…

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 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…

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…

If a Member has read--and, of course, I was talking about this Member--over 10 books, traveled Arkansas, spoken to people, and believes that a high public official was and may still be a cocaine addict, do I not have a right to state that…

Beautifully put. You have actually picked up the theme of the cardinals, to try and win by persuasion. But when you are a fighter pilot, that is hard. Your dad is a fighter pilot. Ask your dad how hard it is to be loving and kind and try…

Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan is changing his vote. At least one has let his conscience kick in. He wrote a speech titled ``Too Close to Infanticide.'' Great cardinals and bishops and Protestant leaders have said it is infanticide, and…

I opened by reading a letter, a speech, that I have been trying to get my hands on for years that Henry Cabot Lodge... delivered in New York on December 4, 1954. Henry Cabot Lodge got up and said these words. I think this is why it…

Let us make a pact that if, God willing and the wisdom of the voters sustaining us in our chairmanships on the election, which is 56 days away tomorrow, if we come back, whether it is President Dole--please, Lord--or President Clinton…

I demand constitutional authority of this House over men and women going into combat. And the minimum we should get is what we have had ever since World War II: consultation.

There is great suffering going on in northern Iraq. I thought that the Kurdish people would maybe reach a period of tranquility here. They are one of these sad ethnic groups that spread over three, actually four, nations, with the…

We have ridiculed the absolute truth of God's word and called it pluralism. We have worshiped false gods and called it multiculturalism. We have endorsed perversion and called it alternative lifestyle or diversity. We have exploited the…

It did not make the evening news at all. It just showed in silent that he got the Gold Medal from Congress.

Pol Pot, Pol Pot, from the Killing Fields. He is on that list that the Pope has condemned. He came into office in 1978 in the killing fields in Cambodia, with the death after 33 days of John Paul I, making him the first. That was in 1978…
