``THE BUCK STOPS HERE'' MEANS IT STOPS WITH THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
(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, the Waco hearings are over. There are two
issues. No. 1: Is Janet Reno truly responsible for the most incompetent
police maneuver in American history; or is Janet Reno carrying the
water, protecting Larry Potts, the FBI, and the ATF for their actions?
Quite frankly, I do not know; but if ``the buck stops here'' means
anything, Janet Reno should be fired and the people of Waco, TX, should
petition their county prosecutor to immediately convene a grand jury,
because it appeared to me as a former sheriff that FBI and ATF agents
were lying through their teeth to the U.S. Congress. ``The buck stops
here'' should mean something.
