edmund burke, the famous british parliamentarians and philosopher of the late eighteenth century famously said you have to be, you have to be in communication with your constituents, in close communication with them but in this end you have to do what you think is right. vote your conscience. and that was the answer that i gave high school students. the panama canal, i had no doubt in my mind what the right vote was because i thought if we did not ratify those, we would be in real trouble. we would be trying to protect the canal in an area with 50 miles of jungle inside the canal, open to constant terrorist attack and up for for no purpose. it was an international waterway. but i didn't communicate it well enough with my constituents. i didn't do a good enough job going out meeting with people, listening to them, getting their point of view and going through it with my road map to isn't. was it going to be unpopular in any event? yes. it was going to be intensely and popular vote for the panama canal treaty but it was almost disrespectful to my constituents not to let least give them a fa

he has no time for incrementalism, that he has russell kirk and edmund burke spinning in their graves, by sort of pigeon holing him as a fascist, they have a way of saying his specific ideology is not compatible with our ideology and separating themselves from him. >> josh this is a key point and i keep seeing people, you know, sort of growing anti-trump backlash among what's called the conservative intelligencia, people i read regularly, in contact with, and sort of correspondent with. and they keep making this argument, which i think is -- bemuses me because i don't think it's particularly effective to its intended audience, which is he is not a real conservative because he is not true to small government principles. for instance, he likes eminent domain. it seems to me a big misreading of the emotional core of that movement's own adhere reps. >> i think this is also interesting in that there have been a lot of pieces in the last few days this talk about is donald trump a fascist, have to start with, well what is fascism anyway? fascism does not have a set of policy prescriptions at

edmund burke said it best, the only thing it takes for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. i support the free expression of religion and all quarters of our society and i stand with coach kennedy, the band from brandon, and the teacher from lamar county and every other american who has been stripped of their religious freedoms. i am committed to protecting our right to express our faith without fear of governmental intrusion or retaliation. i encourage my colleagues to do the same. with that, mr. speaker, god bless america. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the chair recognizes the gentlewoman from florida, ms. ros-lehtinen, for five minutes. mr. speaker, n: monday, november 9, marks the 77th anniversary of crystal enact. the event that would foreshadow the crimes against humanity that the nazis would commit against six million jews and other religious and ethnic minorities. inspired by the incitement from the nazi minister of propaganda, joseph goebbels, regime members and party loyalists issued orders to local officials to target and attack the jewish community. oft

edmund burke, the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.s it so outrageous is that the turning point that says we need our military to go there and stop some coming here. is that the new logic? >> is an absolute turning point. someone can stand up and say this is not about nation-building, a strike operation that will go in and confront islamic terrorism and the autism and defeat and destroyed it. stuart: lieutenant colonel alan west, a pleasure, see you again real soon. more news on the terror front, russia now says that passenger jet that crashed in egypt was brought down by a terrorist bomb. ashley: they have found traces of foreign explosives on the debris, they believe it was a homemade bomb put on the plane, exploded mid-air and explains why the debris was spread so far, difficult to figure out what brought the plane down. in response, russian president vladimir putin vowing to find and punish whoever was responsible, whoever was behind the attack and said i will go to the end of the earth to find them. they are offering $50 million r

he quoted edmund burke saying a representative did not tell his constituents simply voting there willjudgment and his best judgment was that he had seen african-american soldiers fighting for their country in vietnam and he could not imagine a country where they could fight a broad but not by a house where they wanted to buy one. so he took a courageous stand while they actually had the power so he had been on that issue early on. it was a pattern that would recur. he was a remarkable public servant. i believe his sense of washington was formed in those years in the house. he served until 1971 this is like talking about -- so bear with me. george herbert walker bush a republican congressman from texas voted with lyndon johnson 53% of the time. can you imagine a republican congressman voting but they democratic president or vice versa 53% of the time? do you might think that's fine but nixon comes into office and 69 and that number must skyrocket. it does. it surges to 55%. this was the man who came of age in a washington where republicans and democrats were friends. again this is like
