“I was not going to speak, but I must say to the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr. McCrery), you know if you are using whatever confrontation took place between the gentleman from California (Mr. Stark) and the gentleman from Louisiana (Mr. McCrery), that is absolutely not true. The policeman came to the library, one, before that happened; and, second, if the problem was in the hearing room between the gentleman from California (Mr. Stark) and the gentleman from Colorado (Mr. McInnis), why would the policemen come to the library to begin with? They came in there, and the gentleman may not know it, but we asked, Why are you here? They said, we have been given orders to remove you from the library. It had nothing, nothing whatsoever to do with what went on in the hearing room. That is the truth.”
