                            THE SUPERLAWYER

  (Mr. HEFLEY asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. HEFLEY. Madam Speaker, President Clinton has hired superlawyer 
Robert Bennett to defend him against charges of sexual harassment.
  I wonder if Mr. Bennett will also defend the President's foreign 
policy.
  If he could do that, Bennett would really be a superlawyer.
  But let us face it, Madam Speaker. For many of the President's 
policies, there is no defense.
  His foreign policy has been inconsistent, indecisive, weak, 
vacillating, mystifying, and maddening. He has sacrificed American 
leadership on the altar of domestic politics.
  And the latest polls indicate the President has not impressed the 
public with his foreign policy efforts. In fact, 50 percent of the 
people do not trust the President to make the right call in 
international affairs.
  Madam Speaker, the President has hired a superlawyer to defend him 
against sexual harassment charges. He needs more than a superlawyer to 
defend his foreign policy.
