“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 every American watching that this letter is in the Record 12 times, and some few other Members have put it in, over the last 4 years, maybe more. I think a lot more. I think I have put it in 15 myself. They can write to their Congressman, and I am saying this, and please, Mr. Speaker, please do not write to my poor office, I do not have any more staffers than anybody else, write to your own Congressman and write for today's Congressional Record, and ask your Congressman to call my office and find out other dates this was in the Record, and then they can see it in its fulsome detail. I will do what the CIA and the DIA has done to our POW and missing-in-action families, and that is drive them to mental pain with what is called redacted documents; you know, where they black out whole sections, so you are left with a page, to whom and from whom, and it is about your son or your husband, lost in Laos, Cambodia, or Vietnam. Then you have to beg for years for documents that are already being given to the Russians in Moscow and their intelligence people to be debunked and destroyed, not debunked, detruthed, or given to Hanoi. We have been given secret documents to Hanoi for a decade now that we would not even give to the parents.”
