 DEMOCRATS' LEFT-WING EXTREMIST PROGRAMS STEAL FROM AMERICA'S CHILDREN

  (Mr. KINGSTON asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. KINGSTON. Mr. Speaker, the Democratic party has truly confused 
their role with Santa Claus, but not with giving gifts of their own 
making, with money they have confiscated from the overworked, 
overtaxed, underappreciated, middle-income working families. But what 
is worse, realizing that Christmas is about children, the Democrats 
have stolen the majority of their money for their left-wing extremist 
programs from America's children.
  Yes, that is true, today's children, taxpayers of tomorrow, will get 
a gift from President Clinton and his extreme liberal Democrat allies: 
a $5 trillion debt. If a baby is born today, over the next 75 years he 
or she will owe $187,000 as his or her portion of the debt above and 
beyond local State and Federal taxes.
  Mr. Speaker, if that is compassion, if that is the Christmas spirit, 
I would just as soon be celebrating ground-hog day.
