                   COMMENTS ON MEXICAN LOAN GUARANTEE

  (Mr. TRAFICANT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, Uncle Sam will not help Washington, DC, 
because of waste, fraud, and mismanagement. Let's see if I understand 
this: Down there in Mexico there is waste, fraud, mismanagement, 
corruption, larceny, kickbacks, bribes, and conspiracy. There is even 
an armed revolution to boot. But Uncle Sam can find $53 billion to bail 
out Mexico.
  Tell me, Mr. Speaker, who is now formulating the policy for the 
United States of America? The Three Stooges, or what? Beam me up. When 
Uncle Sam can say ``Sorry, Charlie,'' to Orange County, CA; Washington, 
DC; Youngstown, OH; and New York but find $53 billion for Mexico, that 
says it all, Congress. Think about it.
