LET US GET BACK TO HEALTH CARE REFORM
(Mrs. SCHROEDER asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Mrs. SCHROEDER. Mr. Speaker, the Republicans went off for a
conference and studied to try to come up with a proposal for health
care. After going to their camp for the weekend, they came away and
they had nothing. There was nothing they could agree on as a health
care reform package. And so I think what they decided to do at that
point was go and come up with a new strategy, and that was to divert
America's attention from health care and engage in ``pillory Hillary.''
So that is what we have seen over and over again and over again.
When you think about it, imagine what would have happened if the
Clintons had made money on this real estate deal.
Here is an example where we have a special prosecutor investigating
it, you have a deal where they lost money, you have all sorts of other
groups investigating it, and in the private sector as a private
attorney dealing with many other things.
What in the world is going on here? I think this country has to get
health care back in focus and we have to get moving on this issue, and
let us stop all the distractions and pretending like every night's news
show is an extension of ``Geraldo.''
