we have not always agreed on certain policies. I can think of a health care issue that we disagreed on. But I certainly do not think it is fair for the Speaker of the House to be accused of perjury in this debate today. I think that I have some bipartisan credentials, so I want to say to Members on both sides of the aisle that the Republican resolution follows the same model that was followed in 1974. A time limit was recognized then, and it is recognized now, as a way to obstruct and delay. We must listen to our consciences. And if we do, I think we can all agree with Chairman Peter Rodino in 1974 and the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Hyde) today, a time limit is not the way to go on this resolution. Yes, I am tired of hearing about the President's indiscretions, and I have had a hard time explaining this to my 10-year-old son. And it will be a stressful time for us. But when I think about the stressful times that our country has gone through in the American Revolution, the Civil War, the two world wars, the Great Depression, I think it would be a shame for us to shirk our duty.
