                   THE FRUITS OF EXTREME PARTISANSHIP

  (Ms. McKINNEY asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. McKINNEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to express my extreme concern 
over the judgment displayed by colleagues from the Sixth District of 
Georgia. His need to fire long-time friend and associate Christina 
Jeffrey from the office of House Historian only demonstrates his folly 
in trying to politicize every aspect of the administration of this 
House.
  He first fired our bipartisan Historian in order to have a personal 
biographer. I wonder, had Ms. Jeffrey been retained, how she would have 
recorded the Ethics Committee investigation of GOPAC.
  Well, it turns out Ms. Jeffrey feels that the Nazis and the Ku Klux 
Klan do not get to tell their side of the story to our children in 
their history classes.
  Mr. Speaker, such are the fruits of extreme partisanship. It deserves 
no place in this House.
