the CEO of the Bank of New York has admitted to laundering $7 billion; and bingo, surprise, surprise, $5 billion of it is expected to be Russian dollars that they got from the International Monetary Fund. Now, if that is not enough to barf…

a study finally admits, and I quote, ``America's borders are so wide open, terrorists could easily smuggle a nuclear bomb across both our borders.'' Think about it, 3 million illegal immigrants, heroin and cocaine by the tons, and now a…
In America we have rewarded dependency, subsidized illegitimacy, and bragged about being family-friendly, but basically, we tax the institution of marriage. I think this is ridiculous. This bill has been moderated some after it has come…
America's borders are so wide open, terrorists could easily smuggle a nuclear bomb across both our borders.
yesterday it was $40 billion, today they are talking $150 billion at Camp David. Unbelievable. While the White House continues to oppose a tax cut for married couples in America, the White House is literally throwing money around at Camp…
leaders Barak and Arafat and President Clinton have been discussing peace in the Middle East for days. But something does not add up to me. Are they discussing peace, or dollars? Reports now say that American taxpayers may be asked to…
In 1994, the United States signed an agreement with Palestinian authorities to encourage American investment with the Palestinian Authority, and this would allow the use of OPIC funds. In 1995, Vice President Al Gore asked a company in my…
Drug Czar McCaffrey has $1 billion to spend on media campaigns, but he settled for subliminal hits. First, the czar allowed TV networks to avoid the 50/50 match by incorporating antidrug messages in their programs. Now the czar wants to…
the courts have struck again. First, it is now perfectly legal to jab scissors into the brain of a full-term baby being delivered until the baby dies; second, Internet pornography is now perfectly legal, even for kids. Think about it. The…
I have heard it all. The State Department is doing away with the term ``rogue states'' for Libya and Iran. They are now called ``states of concern''. Now if that is not enough to confuse Henny Youngman, a State Department spokesman said…
I heard the words today too risky, too hasty, bad procedure, not enough money, bad for seniors, unfunded mandates, politics, empty promises, on and on. And once again, divide, confuse, obstruct, pit seniors against youth, management…
Something bothers me, Mr. Speaker. In America, the courts have ruled that we can burn our flag, communists can work in our defense plants, murderers are entitled to cable television, including the Playboy Channel, pornography has been…
As an athlete, I played against Notre Dame. I think it is fitting that the Congressional Gold Medal be awarded to this great American. I want to commend the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Roemer) and I know the gentleman from Indiana (Mr…
the world's first canine travel agency opened in Austria. No joke. A company advertises health spas for Rottweilers, massage parlors for Dobermans, beauty parlors for poodles. If that is not enough to throw up one's Alpo, they offer a…
for months, big oil companies have been averaging 350 percent profits. Averaging 350 percent. And after all that, finally the EPA says, and I quote: We suspect gouging by the big oil companies. No kidding, Sherlock. The truth is these…
I am under investigation in the Northern District of Ohio by the United States Justice Department, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Internal Revenue Service. They have targeted me for 20 years. They suborned perjury in my first…
The Supreme Court says pornography is okay and it is okay to burn the flag, that Communists can work in our defense plants, that it is okay to teach witchcraft in our schools and that it is okay for our students to write papers about the…
the Lord's prayer is 66 words; the 10 Commandments, 179 words; the Gettysburg Address, 286 words; the Declaration of Independence, 1,322 words; the United States Tax Code, 2 million 8 hundred thousand plus words. It is out of control. In…
the Department of Labor is bragging about all the new high-tech jobs they created. Let us check a few of them out. Dust collector, potato peeler, pretzel twisting, mattress testing, pillow stuffer, brassiere cup molder cutter, and panty…
gasoline is $2.20 a gallon. That is right, $2.20. Now, if that is not enough to bust your bunions, Congress gives billions of dollars to OPEC countries, and they rip us off. To boot, the domestic oil companies are gouging us so bad, we are…
Elian Gonzalez watched his mother drown, he then clinged to a tire at sea to save his life, and after all of that, commandos seized him at gunpoint. If that is not enough to portray a gulag, Americans later gathered right here in the…
Yes, Mr. Chairman, I do. I believe the gentleman's argument is in order, save for the possible precedents of an unusual situation. Although it is not existing law, the authorizing committee of this body being the body of the full House…
I think everybody is going to object to this amendment. This is one of 13 bills that will ultimately become law. Many of the things the Republicans have in the bill are not going to be in this final bill. There will be precedents set in…
I have heard arguments that protecting workers is shoving jobs overseas. I would like to make issue with that. I think our tax and trade policies are chasing American companies overseas. And here is how we are trying now to save a few…
Secretary of Labor Elizabeth Dole announced a major initiative to reduce repetitive motion trauma. She said she intended to begin the rule-making process immediately. She said Assistant Secretary of Labor Scanell shall begin an inspection…
