I understand you want to write a book. I own a publishing company you know. Could these words have been uttered in the Rayburn Room just off the House floor? Mr. Speaker, the more we know, the more we have to wonder, what went on in the backrooms of the Capitol. Only a full airing of the facts will determine whether something illicit took place.
