On the recordMarch 13, 1997
I may be a dumb country lawyer, I may have graduated from the University of Alabama, but my recollection was that George Bush was not President in 1993 or in 1994, that that was in fact William Jefferson Clinton. They had control over this Chamber over the two-year period in 1993 and 1994, they had the President of the United States, and they did not want to do anything on campaign finance reform. Now they come to this well in self-righteous indignation trying to distract people. And if they want to be self-righteous, if they want to get on the well of the floor and debate this, we will gladly do it for as long as you want to do it, because you do not have the moral high ground. And when you had a chance to change things, you did not do it, and you cannot rewrite history, as much as you would like to try.
