                         WHITE HOUSE VIDEOTAPES

  (Mr. DeLAY asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DeLAY. Mr. Speaker, let us go to the videotape. There we can see 
President Clinton schmooze with John Huang and Roger Tamraz at 
fundraisers held at the White House. The White House staff has 
videotaped 44 or more of these events, probably to help secure 
President Clinton's place in history.
  I hope the White House has videotaped other history-making scenes by 
this administration, like when President Clinton supported the Internal 
Revenue Service over the taxpayers by threatening a veto of commonsense 
efforts to reform the IRS. That gesture will be remembered by every 
taxpayer in America. I hope the White House has videotaped the Vice 
President's claim that there was no controlling legal authority when he 
described why he broke campaign finance laws. Some Members of this 
House might want to keep that videotape really close at hand.
  Mr. Speaker, when it comes to this White House, I say let us go to 
the videotape.
