On the recordMarch 26, 1998
I have some questions to ask today. Is it not strange that this White House can find and release in a matter of hours a half-dozen private letters written years ago by a volunteer, but it takes months and even years to find official documents officially requested by official government agencies? Is it not strange that the pundits and spin doctors representing Bill Clinton have so much to say when no one elected them, while the President continues to say nothing? Is it not strange that the President invokes executive privilege to keep his aides from telling what they know when he says he has nothing to hide? Is it not strange that every person who dares to speak up about Bill Clinton's behavior is smeared and slandered by the White House attack team? I think we need to ask more questions.
