Aristide said that "If Jesus was so angry when he entered the temple that he took up a whip. turned over the tables and talked harshly to the hypocrites. all the more reason for us to do so who are Jesus servants." For this man to compare himself to Jesus is disgustingly blasphemous. Arlstide opposes every principle for which our country stands. For the United States to spend over $2 billion in taxpayer dollars to prop up this man is unconscionable. Mr. President. Aristide threatened to send a flood of refugees to the United States if additional millions of the American citizens dollars are denied him. And the Clinton administration has capitulated to this blackmail. But this Senator. for one. cannot stomach using U.S. tax money to sponsor a tyrant who has demonstrated no concern for justice or democracy.
