Mr. Speaker, before I yield to Mr. Stockman, I want to apologize to the House for reading into the Record comments from citizens of the United States exercising their First Amendment rights. One of those citizens made a disparaging remark about the President of the United States, and we understand that Members, ourselves, cannot personalize these issues.
