           NONSENSE CONTINUES TO DOMINATE THE 106TH CONGRESS

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. MAJOR R. OWENS

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, October 1, 1999

  Mr. OWENS. Mr. Speaker, there are strong rumors that Actor Warren 
Beatty may run for President in order to highlight the ``real issues'' 
facing our great nation. Beatty produced and starred in the movie, 
``Bulworth,'' which was a nonsense presentation seeking to ridicule our 
present political environment. When we listen to the posturing and 
slogans of the leadership of this 106th Congress it is difficult to 
distinguish the nonsense on the floor from the nonsense in 
``Bulworth.'' Perhaps the political process would benefit from a 
presidential run by Warren Beatty. He could hold up a mirror for us to 
see the ``bull'' we tolerate.

                            Welcome Bulworth

     Bulworth welcome
     To the Capitol dome
     For folks full of bull
     This is your home
     Manure is splattered
     Over the Congress floor
     Bring a shovel
     Push the grit
     Out the Chamber door
     Medicare prescriptions
     Will bankrupt the nation
     BULL
     Postpone school construction
     Til the next generation
     BULL
     Money equals free speech
     Guns have great
     Manhood lessons to teach
     BULL
     Tobacco smoke is not a pest
     Get government out of the medicine chest
     Unborn children need protection
     Single mothers deserve rejection
     BULL
     Moral decay killed the kids
     At Columbine
     Our hi-tech army
     Still needs the land mine
     BULL BULL BULL.
