On the recordJanuary 26, 1994
it is a new year and we can rejoice! Rejoice that the taxpayers of America are rid of Lawrence Walsh! He is no longer at the public trough. Seven years he lived off the fat of the land. Seven years of limousines, room service, the most expensive place to live in Washington, and posh office space. Seven years of trying to prove his preconceived notion that Reagan and Bush were guilty of something--please anything. Seven years and 40 million of our tax dollars--and for what? A 566-page report costing $70,641 per page without one shred of evidence of wrongdoing on the part of either Reagan or Bush and no new revelations that we did not know from the start. So what does he do? He says Reagan, while not guilty of anything, created the atmosphere for wrong doing. Come on. Mr. Walsh is a disgrace to himself, his profession, his native Oklahoma, and his Nation, a very expensive disgrace who milked us unmercifully. He should be ashamed of himself and we are ashamed of him.
