| 00:00:00 | HE WAS DECLARED GUILTY ON BY THE BIPARTISAN ETHICS COMMITTEE. |

| 00:00:56 | SPEAKER, I WANT TO COMMEND CONGRESSWOMAN NANCY JOHNSON AND HER BIPARTISAN ETHICS COMMITTEE FOR A THOUGHTFUL AND THOROUGH JOB THEY DID, AND THOROUGH CONSIDERATION |
Mrs. SCHROEDER. Mr. Speaker, history is being rewritten down here in this well today. I want to tell my colleagues that when I listen to the other side, I have heard of putting lipstick on pigs, but they are really going crazy this morning.
Now, the way I see it is, there were 6 complaints filed, not 65. Six complaints. Three of them he was declared guilty by the bipartisan Committee on Standards of Official Conduct. Guilty, guilty, guilty. Three complaints. Please, let us not rewrite what has been done. It is a record of this House.
On one of the others, they moved to get a special counsel to look into it. That is very serious. One is still pending, and there are more supposedly coming to be filed. I think these are very serious. We should not play partisan politics with this, and this is not get-even time. The Democrats don't have to do anything to Speaker Gingrich. All we have to do is stand back and let Newt be Newt. He is doing it, and I think it is really causing great trouble. END
