the White House yesterday denied that there was a conflict of interest when Hillary Clinton sued a political supporter for the Government, and settled for less than she should have. The White House also doesn't think it is unusual that Mrs. Clinton's associates sold short pharmaceutical company stocks right before she publicly attacked those companies in the media. Clearly, the White House doesn't know the definition of conflict of interest. But, Mr. Speaker, there are serious questions raised by the ethical lapses of the Clinton administration. The President's credibility on health care and crime must be reexamined in light of these ethics questions. How can we trust a Government to run our health care when it cannot take care of its own business without waste, fraud, and abuse of the people's trust? How can we trust a President to fight crime when his own administration has ethical problems? The American people need to know the answers to these questions.
