Senator Shelby spent a little while and others have asked a number of times about the memorandum or diaries of Roger Altman with respect to the words "paralyzed," and the quote, "If we don't solve this within the next two days, you don't have to worry about her schedule." I really wanted to place in the record, and ask unanimous consent to do so, just two newspaper-collections of news stories beginning in December of 1993 running up through the time of this diary. The CHAIRMAN. Without objection that will be made part of the record. Senator KERRY. I'd just like to run through it very quickly for a minute and then revisit the diary in that context. On December 23, 1993, a newspaper article appeared in The Washington Post and this is just The Washington Post/New York Times here. But The Washington Post had "Hill Pressure Builds for Probe of Clinton's Whitewater." I might add the "Hill pressure" might more accurately have been described as "Republican pressure" because it was exclusively Jim Leach, Senator D'Amato, and Bob Dole, but that was phrased as "Hill pressure." The day before that an article in The New York Times, "Investigators to Seek Ex-White House Files on Land Dealings." (13:02:11)(tape # 10089 ends)
