“March Madness is here. No, I am not talking about the NCAA College Basketball Tournament; I am talking about the Democratic Party's strange aversion to open hearings on the Whitewatergate affair. The latest majority party escapade regarding Whitewater occurred when the chairman of the Banking Committee first decided not to hold legally required oversight hearings on the Resolution Trust Corporation and then dramatically, no doubt due to pressure, changed his mind. He has now called for a select committee to investigate this sordid affair. He would rather have someone else do the dirty work. But even that is progress. But when, when, when? I agree with those who say we need to put the whole scandal behind us so we can work on the issues in which the voters are interested. But first, we need to find out the facts. Mr. Speaker, support full disclosure. If the President and his agents and staff did nothing wrong, then they should have nothing to fear. Let this House--and the American public--have full disclosure.”
