In fact, Madam Speaker, I am sure that my colleagues on the other side of the aisle would join me in this realization, that those who aspire to public office should obey existing law. And unfortunately, the scenario that is played out here, listening to the whip, my friend from Michigan, listening to my colleague from California, is one akin to a speeder pulled over by a traffic cop. Now, I know many policemen who patrol the highways and byways hear all sorts of excuses. But never have I heard them relate to me that when they pull over a speeder, the speeder says to the officer, well, you may have a posted speed limit of 55 or 65, but that is just not adequate. That law should be changed. That law should now be 95 miles an hour. And sadly what is going on in this Chamber, Madam Speaker, and going on, I regret to say, at the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue is a massive effort to misdirect the attention of the American people.
