                  PRESIDENT CLINTON--HEALTH CARE TRUST

  (Mr. DOOLITTLE asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DOOLITTLE. Mr. Speaker, President Clinton has unveiled a new 
television commercial promoting his socialistic health care plans. He 
says his proposal will not result in the Government takeover of the 
health care delivery system. He asks the American people to trust him 
in telling the truth regarding health care.
  But before the American people give the President that trust, I ask 
them to reflect on the President's own track record. Did you trust the 
President regarding his pledge to cut taxes? Did you trust him 
regarding his pledge to cut spending? Did you trust him regarding his 
draft status? Did you trust him when he said he did not inhale? Do you 
trust him regarding Whitewater?
  Mr. Speaker, the President asks us to trust him when it comes to 
health care reform, but trust must be earned rather than freely given. 
And President Clinton's record in this regard has now become quite 
clear to most Americans.
