               PRESIDENT JIANG SLEEPS IN LINCOLN BEDROOM

  (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, let us see if this makes sense. China 
helps Iran. Iran threatens Israel and all the Middle East. Iran is a 
known major terrorist threat to America. But Uncle Sam gives China $60 
billion a year in sweetheart trade deals.
  Now, if that is not enough to massage your arthritis, after all this, 
President Jiang is literally sleeping in the Lincoln bedroom, being 
wined and dined, at taxpayers' expense, by the White House.
  Beam me up. This madness has gone too far. When American foreign 
policy goes from honest aid to the butcher at Tiananmen Square, 
something is wrong, Congress, very wrong. Think about it. I yield back 
what national security we still have left.
