Political Quotes

“Okay. If I wanted to be a partisan hack on this issue, the smartest thing in the world for me to do would be to say, keep the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Burton) in that chairmanship, because I have seen these editorials, and I mentioned the editorials I have referred to. The editorials have skewered them. They have not been good, frankly, for the Republicans. So I would say let him stay there, but I am interested in having the truth. I think that there are other people on this committee, I am on this committee, the gentleman from California (Mr. Cox), the gentleman from Connecticut (Mr. Shays), the gentlewoman from Maryland (Mrs. Morella), the gentleman from California (Mr. Horn), there are many others on that committee who could run that committee and frankly would have credibility. I think what we have to do is, we have to have a search for the truth. Again, for me, sadly the committee no longer has credibility. That is what the issue is for me. I would be lying to you if I told you anything else. It just simply no longer has any credibility.”
