I think when you use a very prejudiced term like that. it is very unfortunate. particularly for an official to use it and it ought to be condemned. If. as the gentleman from Indiana suggests. he may not have said it. I hope he will let us know and I will be glad to acknowledge that. The gentleman from Indiana said. well. maybe he said it and maybe he did not. I see no indication that he said he was misquoted. He said he meant to say "illegal alien" instead of "wetback." I think that is just a hard mistake. but if the gentleman would report to me that he did not say "wetback." I will be glad to apologize instead of going on the newspaper report.
