The Senator from Wyoming wanted to reach the inescapable conclusion that, by refusing to come to grips with this, we are, in fact, indulging in an organized coverup of something. Whether or not that is true, the public impression of it has to be growing that there is an unwillingness on the part of the majority party to come to grips in ways in which they have come to grips as the leader points out with Republicans. So the only inescapable conclusion is that there must be something to hide; otherwise, the hearings would do a lot to alleviate the President's Presidency from this overhanging cloud. Is that a fair assumption?

I have spoken my piece. I have the belief, as I have stated, that the legislation is ill-founded and unwise. It has passed the committee. It will most certainly probably pass the Senate. But my opinion on it is now recorded.
