all day my Democrat friends have spoken of the treacherous waters our country would be thrown into should this impeachment resolution pass and the matter be sent to the Senate, and while today's debate is momentous and its historical…

this is truly a very bad time for us. I wish Ms. Lister, instead of going to this Harvard symposium, would have been where I was a week ago and seen the 222nd birthday of the United States Marine Corps, and hear the commandant talk about…

more and more Americans are concerned about the fund-raising scandal going on and the coverup going on over at the White House. In fact, a majority of Americans are now calling for an independent prosecutor. Yet all the Democrats give us…

He ignored an explicit warning, as did the President, according to Washington Post reports. They ignored explicit warnings from their own attorneys: Do not raise money by making phone calls from the White House. And, of course, we remember…

One area, though, where obviously I have been in disagreement with several friends on the other side of the aisle and that many of us have found disagreement with many of the other Members on the other side of the aisle has to do with some…

Who is making the money? It is certainly not Main Street, it is Wall Street. ... we are having a crisis of the American spirit that F.D.R. warned about 50, 60 years ago.

Mr. Speaker, I think maybe they had Richard Nixon's secretary who erased 18 minutes or so of tape, possibly, 20 or 30 years ago working for the White House, because now we find that we have an entire coffee erased, and yet they come to us…

I just hope that one Democrat will have the moral courage to stand up and break through and step forward and be a hero, like Howard Baker, a Republican Senator, who back during the Watergate hearings had the guts to stand up and say, "What…

And, regretfully, we cannot just say it was a couple of Asian Americans who abused the democratic process, because the White House is sort of doing the nod and wink, ``Yeah, Charlie Trie and John Huang, we just never knew what was going on…

And the White House and Justice Department will do absolutely nothing, will they? Will not lift their finger to bring these possible international fugitives to justice because of what it might do to the White House; is that correct?

Did the gentleman just say that a man who had his passport seized because he was a felon was invited to the White House even after we seized his passport? What I am saying is, is the gentleman saying that basically the standard of getting…

I thought the race-baiting a few nights ago was bad, but yesterday they raised the ugly specter of anti-Semitism and that somehow we were unfeeling toward the Jews to observe this very, very holy holiday, which of course we were not, and…

And, regretfully, that is something that has been echoed, again in the New York Times: ``Oil man says he got access by giving the Democrats money.'' And in this story he testifies, ``I think next time I will give $600,000,'' and stated…

As the New York Times wrote in an editorial on September 10, 1997, yesterday's testimony yet again punctures the fiction that the abuses that occurred were solely the responsibility of the Democrat Party and not the White House. That is…

I think the gentleman is now starting to strike a nerve because maybe if you go to cash instead of money and maybe if you can get cash from a foreign friend and offer them some foreign cash, maybe that would be the type of thing they…

I come to the floor today, I have to say, a bit saddened by some of the events that have occurred this past week. I came to Congress in 1994, and like many of us who came here, we had never been in government before, certainly had not been…

Since I do not have a subpoena and have not been drinking Washington, DC, tap water, I can remember. Yes, I will admit here that I have had a speeding ticket.

He pleaded with his own Members of his own party, ``Please, let us enter into an agreement with the majority leader.'' It was a good agreement. He said it was a fair agreement and it was the best way for us to move forward to do the…

Again, it goes back to what the gentleman who chaired the Democratic National Committee said when he said he could not recall whether he helped get an international fugitive into the White House by using influence over the CIA, the Energy…

That is what the Washington Post has editorialized about time and time again. What they call it is telling the truth in dribs and drabs. They said, you paraphrased what they said, how the White House starts with a denial, then they say…

If the gentleman could stay to answer a few questions, first of all, the first question I have is, how did the White House respond to the National Security Council's warning about Mr. Chung? And I ask that because I had been speaking…

Buy influence and muscle his way into the White House. The New York Times wrote, ``He,'' the international fugitive ``was affirming that in the shadowy reaches of the international business world it was believed accurately that during the…

I want to just say that I support fully the efforts of the gentleman from New York [Mr. Paxon]. I certainly was honored to be at the press conference earlier this week when we saw a man who actually dared to look ahead to the next century…

I want to come to this side of the aisle to impress upon my friends on the Democratic side to start moving forward and doing things to clean up their own house on campaign finance before they go to the other side and talk about how we need…

Thank God the liberals have never raised money in New York City. You know, it is interesting, the last speaker shows us the nature of the Democrat's complaints in the past. Here we have somebody complaining about us adjourning at 4…
