    REPUBLICANS HAVE COOPERATED IN THE PAST AND WANT TO DO SO AGAIN

  (Mr. WELDON asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WELDON. Mr. Speaker, I watched the temper tantrum of the 
President last night, and I got sick to my stomach. You might think he 
is the only one in America who is concerned about crime. Those who 
voted ``no'' on the rule are uncaring and obstructionist and partisan.
  Mr. President, let me tell you, I broke ranks with my party over the 
past few years over the Brady bill, family and medical leave, striker 
replacement, campaign finance reform, California desert protection, 
grazing, and mining issues. And I saved Vice President Gore's globe 
program.
  This President's definition of bipartisanship is when you do what he 
wants all the time.
  Mr. President, you are no longer in Arkansas. Bipartisanship means 
working together. We are ready to work on crime, are you?
