FACTUAL HARASSMENT
(Mr. BALLENGER asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. BALLENGER. Mr. Speaker, the President has hired Robert Bennett,
the noted defense attorney, to defend him against charges of sexual
harassment.
Can Bennett defend the President against charges of factual
harassment? This is where the President says one thing, but does
another.
His health care plan was supposed to promote health security for all,
but in reality would lower health care quality while costing a million
jobs.
He promised to end welfare as we know it, but if he has a plan he
will not show it.
His plan to fight crime spends more money on social programs than on
building prisons, and we all remember his promise for a middle-class
tax cut.
Mr. Speaker, the President must answer many charges in the months to
come. The most serious of all to the American people is the President's
penchant for factual harassment.
