                      AMERICAN TAXPAYERS, REJOICE!

  (Mr. HEFLEY asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. HEFLEY. Mr. Speaker, it is a new year and we can rejoice! Rejoice 
that the taxpayers of America are rid of Lawrence Walsh! He is no 
longer at the public trough.
  Seven years he lived off the fat of the land.
  Seven years of limousines, room service, the most expensive place to 
live in Washington, and posh office space.
  Seven years of trying to prove his preconceived notion that Reagan 
and Bush were guilty of something--please anything.
  Seven years and 40 million of our tax dollars--and for what? A 566-
page report costing $70,641 per page without one shred of evidence of 
wrongdoing on the part of either Reagan or Bush and no new revelations 
that we did not know from the start.
  So what does he do? He says Reagan, while not guilty of anything, 
created the atmosphere for wrong doing. Come on.
  Mr. Walsh is a disgrace to himself, his profession, his native 
Oklahoma, and his Nation, a very expensive disgrace who milked us 
unmercifully. He should be ashamed of himself and we are ashamed of 
him.
