The Public Record
Even though California consumers are suffering the worst power shortage in history and outrageous costs, a Federal judge has ruled that the Pacific Gas and Electric Company can pay their top managers $17.5 million in bonuses. Now, if that…
the two amendments that were placed in the IRS reform bill by former Chairman of the Committee on Ways and Means, Bill Archer, the Traficant amendments could not get a hearing for 12 years. Yes, the first one shifted the burden of proof…
I am not going to bother with those, but I will later tonight offer an amendment that will kill bonuses to IRS brass. Now, the amendment, in order to be germane, had to be printed that it would kill all bonus incentives for the entire…
I have never heard so many Members coming over and saying they agree with me, but they have to oppose my amendment. They say they like what I am doing, it needs to be done; but they are going to have to vote ``no.'' They say, I want to…
We have just gone through a period in our history where America's procurement by bureaucrats has become so convoluted that even the Pentagon bought black berets made in China. The excuse was they could not have made them in a timely…
the FBI did not steal guns nor computers? Beam me up. The FBI destroyed incriminating evidence that would have whacked the FBI right out of the box. Even Chief Inspector Clouseau can smell out this diversion. From Waco to Ruby Ridge to…
let us get to the point: China is a communist dictatorship. China has threatened Taiwan, and even Los Angeles. As we speak, China is shipping arms to Cuba. China has just signed an agreement with Russia. China held 24 Americans hostage, no…
let us cut to the chase here. Opponents say that the Constitution separates church and State. Let us get down to business. But all legislative history clearly states and reflects the fact that the Founders' intent was only to prohibit the…
I am advising both of these Members to take a look at the conditions of overcrowding, rape and serious problems in the Federal Prison System that have been swept under the rug.
The IRS said last year's 81 percent error rate dropped to only 73 percent this past year. Unbelievable. The Internal Rectal Service screws up 73 percent of the time and then brags about it. If that is not enough to cause your 1040 to…
I have advised both the chairman and ranking member to look seriously at overcrowding and rape and serious problems in the Federal Bureau of Prisons.
Over the July 4 holiday when Americans celebrate Independence Day, the National Symphony Orchestra on the mall was performing... I think our trade policy sucks more than the suckerfish, and I think it is time we get a grip on this. The…
leaders of China and Russia have just kissed, signed an agreement, and referred to Uncle Sam as an imperialist. China got our secrets from spies and from buying, with the help of Janet Reno. Russia got them from the FBI and Robert Hanssen…
the Old Glory Condom Corporation lost the decision. They were not allowed to sell red, white, and blue condoms, so they appealed. They said their red, white, and blue condoms were a patriotic symbol, and, yes, Members guessed it, the U.S…
the endangered sucker fish is living up to its reputation, sucking the livelihood from 1,400 farmers in Oregon. That is right. This protected bottom feeder now has more rights than farmers out there. If that is not enough to fry your…
China has executed 1,781 citizens in the last 90 days. That is more executions than the entire world performed over the last 3 years. China is now even executing citizens for pimping and prostitution. It is getting so bad that Chinese…
FBI Agent Hanssen pleaded guilty to spying for Russia. Now, think about it: First he said, the devil made me do it; now he says he just wants to make amends. Spare me. The truth is Janet Reno sold the farm to China, FBI agents are spying…
the pit bull is the most ferocious dog in the world, but nobody told that to Margaret Hargrove of Florida. When a pit bull clamped his massive jaws around her small Scot terrier's neck, Margaret ferociously bit the pit bull back. Now, if…
I would just like to say the worst thing about global warming would be a German transit system in the City of New York that focuses on the violations that occur in the Buy American Act.
Today is the 125th anniversary of Custer's last stand, a sad chapter in American history. To make it even worse, there is only one monument at Little Bighorn, to--General Custer! Unbelievable. As the story goes, Uncle Sam took the whole…
A California woman has set a world record by hooking 7,000 brassieres together to create the biggest bra ball in history. This bra ball is a protest against the way women's breasts have been exploited. Now, if that is not enough to…
Congress has approved building a memorial to our dedicated troops which served our Nation in World War II. One of the contracts awarded was to a subsidiary of a German company which has Nazi roots. They built Nazi war planes; and they have…
first the Air Force buys Chinese boots. Then the Pentagon buys black berets made in China. To boot, visitors at Quantico get gifts from the Marines made in China. If that is not enough to spoil your Chinese dinner, digest this, Congress…
the constituents of the gentleman from Idaho (Mr. Simpson) were honored to visit our Marine base at Quantico. They even got a gift. The token gift is a Communist-made calculator with ``Marines'' printed on one side and ``Made in China''…
the State Department now admits that China and Cuba have signed a military agreement, and China is shipping weapons into Cuba. But the State Department said, and I quote, ``we are not sure if those weapons are lethal''. Unbelievable. Every…
Politicians like James Traficant
