On the recordFebruary 10, 1994
I am hopeful that as the Members come to the floor, they will picture in their mind the following scene. A high-ranking, high-profile Member of Congress is accused of wrongdoing in one form or another, and that accusation, that allegation, finds itself on the desk of the Attorney General. The Attorney General, under the concept of bill and Bryant, bill/Bryant, may decide to call for an independent counsel, may, and may decide not to even investigate, could quash the whole matter right at the Attorney General's desk, refuse to investigate, refuse to articulate any concern or jurisdiction over that matter. Envision further, I ask the Members as they come up, this high-ranking, powerful Member of Congress happens to be of the same political party as the Attorney General, and the Attorney General, of course, is of the same political party as the President of the United States.
