WHO'S DRIVING?
(Mr. GOSS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. GOSS. Mr. Speaker, the world is not waiting for the White House
to face the challenge of global leadership. In Bosnia, North Korea,
Iraq, Haiti, and several Africa nations tensions mount tragedies
multiply. The Washington Post, not known for tough critique of Democrat
administrations, has launched a scathing review of this President's
failed leadership on foreign policy. The Post said of President
Clinton, ``Positioning himself as the pawn of a self-driven
international machine, he has abdicated what ought to be a great
power's serious effort to win, first, the American people and then
others to policies of American design--as Gorazde shudders under point
blank Serb shelling--he flees Washington for a rally of Mustang
owners,'' The appearance that President Clinton is more comfortable
behind the wheel of an antique car explains why our allies grow
increasingly uncomfortable with him as the lead driver of the globe's
only superpower.
