                           ANY MORE STORIES?

  (Mr. BALLENGER asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BALLENGER. Mr. Speaker, here we go again. First it is inventing 
the Internet, then it is drugs for his mother-in-law and his dog. Now 
it appears the Vice President's imagination has really run wild again. 
When Governor Bush mentioned traveling to a disaster area with the head 
of FEMA, Mr. Gore added that he traveled with him too. Untrue. Then 
claimed to be a strong supporter of the lockbox for Social Security and 
Medicare. Surprise, surprise, the Democrat filibuster holding up this 
legislation is waiting for his first sign of support. What about that 
poor Florida girl forced to stand in her class of 36 because there is 
no room for her desk? Guess what? Not true again.
  What is that phrase about pants on fire? Any more stories?
