“This debate is not about the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Burton) or Bill Clinton. It is not about the Lincoln bedroom or Monica Lewinsky. This debate is about our national security. This is no fly on our face. This is an elephant eating our assets, and that elephant is China, Communist China, with a foothold on our soil that has missiles, as we speak, pointing and capable of hitting every American city, a nation that threatened Taiwan. What are we, nuts? Now we find out that Johnny chunk got $300,000 from a member of the Chinese Army to gain access to the White House, and he boasts about it. Look, the White House is not a one-stop shopping mall for campaign headquarters, folks. Congress must investigate this matter, and a Congress that plays partisan politics with this is a Congress that endangers the national security of every citizen. I support the resolution, and I am glad to see that the Democrats will be supporting it as well. We must support this resolution, and we must investigate this matter.”
