Speech #980080964

I have sat in this House for nearly 15 years and. like many of you. always conscious of those who have preceded us here. mindful of the moments when they confronted a challenge to our security and our vital interests. And I ask myself. what verdict would they pass upon us. their successors. if we abide this Marxist inquilinism on the body of our continent? Worse. what will be the verdict of those who follow us when the consequences of our action bear the bitter fruit of Marxist triumph throughout all of Central America. and we are swept by the tide of refugees who will inundate our shores? I do not expect to be here then. nor will many of you. but I do not want my name sullied with the irrefutable charge that I lost Central America. I yield back the balance of my time.
