ON MONDAY NIGHT, PRESIDENT CLINTON SAID HE HAD BEEN IN WASHINGTON, D.C. FOR 27 DAYS, AND HE HADN'T BEEN ABLE TO FIND MUCH 1 Page 4 of 69 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu COMMON SENSE. I TOLD HIM ALL HE HAD TO DO TO CORRECT THAT SITUATION WAS TO COME TO THE 20TH ANNUAL CPAC CONFERENCE. IT IS A PLEASURE TO BE HERE TONIGHT, AND TO BE SURROUNDED BY SO MANY FELLOW 11 COMMON SENSE 11 CONSERVATIVES. THIS CPAC 2 Page 5 of 69 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu GATHERING IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE ONES YOU'VE HELD THESE PAST DOZEN YEARS. FROM 1981 TO 1992, WHEN YOU IVIET IN WASHINGTON, YOU KNEW THAT WHILE CONGRESS MIGHT BE AWASH WITH LIBERALS, THERE WAS A ~ CONSERVATIVE AT THE OTHER -END OF PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE. 3 Page 6 of 69 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu THIS YEAR, OF COURSE, THINGS HAVE CHANGED. LIBERALS CONTROL THE HOUSE. LIBERALS CONTROL THE SENATE. LIBERALS CONTROL THE WHITE HOUSE. AND, BY THE WAY, LIBERALS ALSO CONTROL LAWRENCE WALSH. THE MEDIA 11 SPIN 11 AFTER LAST NOVEMBER'S ELECTION WAS 4 Page 7 of 69 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu THAT IT WAS A DEFEAT OF CONSERVATIVE PRINCIPLES. SINCE PRESIDENT CLINTON WAS ELECTED WITH 43% OF THE VOTE, THIS IS LIKE SAYING THAT THE SUPER BOWL WAS A DEFEAT FOR THE DALLAS COWBOYS. I BELIEVE THAT THE VAST MAJORITY OF AMERICANS STILL 5 Page 8 of 69 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu SUPPORT CONSERVATIVE VALUES ... VALUES SUCH AS LESS TAXES, LESS SPENDING, AND FEWER GOVERNMENT MANDATES ... VALUES LIKE ENSURING AMERICANS ARE SAFE--FROM TYRANTS ABROAD, AND FROM CRIMINALS HERE AT HOME. 6 Page 9 of 69 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu THOSE VALUES ARE NOW BEING CHALLENGED BY PRESIDENT CLINTON, WHO TOLD US LAST NIGHT THAT AMERICA NEEDS A 361 BILLION DOLLAR TAX INCREASE--AN INCREASE THAT WILL REACH ALL AMERICANS WHO MAKE AT LEAST $30,000. 7 Page 10 of 69 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu I BELIEVE THAT AMERICANS NEED A TAX INCREASE ABOUT AS MUCH AS RUSH LIMBAUGH NEEDS ASSERTIVENESS TRAINING. BUT I DON'T WANT TO GET INTO DEBATING ECONOMIC POLICY, FOR THERE WILL BE PLENTY OF TIME FOR THAT LATER. 8 Page 11 of 69 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu TONIGHT WE ARE GATHERED FOR A DIFFERENT REASON. TONIGHT WE ARE GATHERED TO SALUTE AN AMERICAN HERO. IN HIS MONDAY NIGHT SPEECH, PRESIDENT CLINTON ALSO TOOK IT UPON HIMSELF ,1 •I TO DEFINE PATRIOTISM. IN HIS VIEW, IF YOU SUPPORT HIS CALL FOR TAX INCREASES, YOU'RE A 9 Page 12 of 69 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu PATRIOT. IF YOU DON'T SUPPORT IT, YOU'RE NOT A PATRIOT. WELL, TONIGHT, I WANT TO GIVE MY OWN DEFINITION OF A ,, ·' PATRIOT. MY DEFINITION OF A PATRIOT IS SOMEONE WHO HAS DEVOTED HIS ENTIRE LIFE TO SERVING AMERICA. 10 Page 13 of 69 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu A PATRIOT IS SOMEONE WHO BEGAN HIS CAREER AS A BUCK PRIVATE IN THE ARMY, AND ROSE TO THE RANK OF CAPTAIN, SERVING AS THE INTELLIGENCE OFFICER TO GENERAL MACARTHUR.
