On the recordSeptember 9, 1997
Mr. Speaker, there is a difference between deliberation and dilatory tactics. Sadly, this Justice Department, in deciding to decide to perhaps one day to decide if there should be independent counsel to check into the alleged wrongdoing of the Vice President, is delaying and stonewalling. Mr. Speaker, with all due apologies to the gentleman from Nevada [Mr. Gibbons], perhaps this body should examine its own form of Reno divorce to see what we can do under the Constitution to examine the actions or the inaction of this Attorney General because, Mr. Speaker, it is important that those elected to high office obey existing law.
