A HOT 2 YEARS
(Mr. DORNAN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. DORNAN. Mr. Speaker, these are going to be 2 very difficult
years, and I am going to try and save my thunder for outside the Halls
of this Chamber and for New Hampshire and Iowa and other places. But I
think every American should read the front page story of the Washington
Post today on Mr. Clinton. It goes into A-4, and opens up, rips off,
every tragic scab and scar from the 1992 campaign. Bob Woodward's book
``Agenda'' on page 287 has Mr. Clinton yelling, it says, ``------ you''
at a U.S. Senator, Bob Kerrey, a Medal of Honor winner.
I am telling all my colleagues on both sides of the aisle, I saw
George Stephanopoulos coming out of Dick Gephardt's office the night
before last. We know Dick has been in the press the last 2 days. Mr.
Clinton is not going to be the nominee of your party. I believe it is
going to be a Medal of Honor winner named Bob Kerrey. That is going to
create a lot of problems for our side.
Let us have a civil debate here. But when the gentleman from Illinois
[Mr. Durbin] gets up and hits my party, I have every right to say read
``The Agenda,'' read ``First in His Class,'' read the front page of the
Post today. It is going to be a hot 2 years.
