               PRESIDENT BUSH'S SPEECHES ARE OUT OF ORDER

  (Mr. KUCINICH asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. KUCINICH. Yesterday, the President gave his progress in Iraq 
speech.

However, in Najaf, security is not being provided by the U.S.-trained 
Iraqi troops, but by the militia of radical Shiite Muslim Muqtada Al-
Sadr.
  In Mosul, the President said 50 percent of the people voted. But 56 
percent of those who voted, voted against the constitution that the 
Bush administration was promoting.
  On May 1 of 2003, the President stood on the deck of an aircraft 
carrier and gave his ``mission accomplished'' speech. Last week he gave 
his ``secret plan for victory'' speech. Yesterday, he gave his ``making 
progress'' speech.
  I think I know the problem here. Whoever has been writing the 
President's speeches owes him an apology. They badly mixed up the 
sequence over the last few years. First, he was to give his ``plan for 
victory'' speech, then he was to give his ``making progress'' speech, 
then he was to give his ``mission accomplished'' speech.
  I have here a copy of his ``get out of Iraq'' speech.
