We all know, Mr. Speaker, what it is that Bill Clinton does best. Unfortunately for the American people it is not foreign policy, it is not solving Medicare problems, and it certainly is not balancing the budget. No, it is not governing that Bill Clinton does best, so he is going to use the White House to do what he does best, to campaign. He is going to use the people's house to raise money for his campaign. But from the President who claims to 'feel your pain' he is not going to pay a visit to the average Americans that tour the White House on a daily basis. Instead he is selling himself to a privileged few for up to $100,000 per person. Now our friends on the Democratic side of the aisle would be going nuts if this was a Republican President doing this. I wonder where those voices of righteous indignation are today. Unfortunately it is too bad that the President cares more about money for his reelection than earning the people's trust.
