              USE AMERICAN TROOPS TO GUARD AMERICAN BORDER

  (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 Immigration and Naturalization 
Service in some of their offices have error rates as high as 99 percent 
in reviewing applications, according to a recent study. In addition, 
13,000 immigrants bought citizenship with illegal payoffs and bribes.
  Now, if that is not enough to compromise your disgust, check this 
out: The INS says keep the military off the borders, Congress.
  Unbelievable. These same bungling, incompetent nincompoops who have 
allowed heroin and cocaine to be easier

to get than aspirin, who have our borders overrun with illegal 
immigrants, now want the border all to themselves.
  Beam me up. The American people want Congress to secure our borders. 
Let me say this, Congress: If American troops can guard borders for the 
United Nations all over the world, American troops can guard the 
American border at home for the American people.
  I think we should investigate those bungling nincompoops at the INS.
  I yield back the 1 percent positive rate they have.
