                          EVERYBODY HAS NUKES

  (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, China and Russia have nukes; India and 
Pakistan have nukes; Russia, Iran, and North Korea have nukes. 
Everybody has nukes. It is so bad, reports now say that McDonald's is 
developing the McNuke.
  I ask, Mr. Speaker, what good is a nuclear test ban if every crackpot 
in the world keeps building nuclear weapons?
  Beam me up here.
  I say be careful, Congress, because America will abide by any nuclear 
test ban, but those crackpots throughout the world will not, and I tell 
my colleagues this: we can build them, but do not shoot them. Save that 
for the tooth fairy.
  I yield back all those mad scientists with carpel funnel.
