Remember. if there is in fact communism. then that means that the Soviets. that means the Bulgarians. the Czechoslovakians. all these people that these freedom fighters have been fleeing would now be involved in the agency which is administering the relief. I suddenly thought to myself. and I said. and maybe it was too strong. I said if you voted for this kind of a provision. you could wear an "I Despise America" button. But the reason I said that was. I was sitting there trying to crystallize how to say to the average American. what is it you have to think of your own Government and your own country to believe that there is not a single agency in your Government that could handle refugees. What is It you have to think of? Where are you at psychologically?
