            THE GREAT SATAN IS TURNING INTO THE GREAT SUCKER

  (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, Russia wants another $10 billion, and 
President Clinton says, ``Okay with me,'' even though the last $10 
billion was stolen.
  That is right. Russian leaders said, and I quote, ``It's missing.''
  In the words of Marvin Gaye, my colleagues, ``What's going on?'' 
Russian leaders steal our money, and then with our money they build 
nuclear reactors in India against our wishes. Then with our money they 
build missiles and then sell the missiles to Iran who refers to Uncle 
Sam as ``The Great Satan.''
  Let me say this, Congress. If we give these people another $10 
billion, Uncle Sam will not be called Great Satan any more. We will be 
known as the Great Sucker all around the world. Ronald Reagan must be 
absolutely sick to his stomach today.
