                    HUBBELL ROLLS OVER ONE MORE TIME

  (Mr. PITTS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. PITTS. Mr. Speaker, consider this. You have the person who was 
the third highest position at the Justice Department, who cheated his 
partners out of a half million dollars, who then cheated the taxpayers 
out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, and who admits out loud on 
tape, and I quote, ``I need to roll over one more time.'' For the hear-
no-evil, see-no-evil Members, I will say that again. Web Hubbell says 
to his wife on tape, ``I need to roll over one more time.''
  One more time? This will be truly puzzling to the other side, 
perhaps, who act as if they are unfamiliar with the language of cover-
up, the language of a person who needs to keep silent to protect his 
friends.
  One more time? Is it possible that Mr. Hubbell is referring to his 
refusal to tell Judge Starr what he knows in order to protect the White 
House?
  Roll over? Perhaps Mr. Hubbell means that he will have to take the 
hit, accept jail time one more time if that is what it takes to protect 
his friends.
