-
- (Mr. HAYWORTH asked and was given permission to address the House for
- 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
- Mr. HAYWORTH. Mr. Speaker, from the home office back in Scottsdale,
- AZ, the top 10 reasons liberal Democrats oppose our Contract With
- America:
- No. 10: Ideas? We don't need your stinking ideas.
- No. 9: Book envy.
- No. 8: Would you Republicans shut up? We are watching the O.J. trial.
- No. 7: Al Gore, what a guy!
- No. 6: `Tis better to have taxed and lost than never to have taxed at
- all.
- No. 5: Never make a promise you might have to keep.
- No. 4: Would rather follow the P.T. Barnum maxim, ``Never give the
- taxpayer an even break.''
- No. 3: Profits? What are profits? Are they evil?
- No. 2: Hey, what happened? We thought the status quo was pretty good.
- And the No. 1 reason Democrats oppose our Contract With America:
- Republicans, with our contract, are trying to change this Congress.
