Bill Clinton

Well, first of all, I had a very good meeting with him, and I'm going to put out a statement about it. We talked about Medicare reform. He and Senator Moynihan assured me they're still committed to that and will work on it in a timely…

I like this portrait an awful lot.

Failure to provide adequate offsets for these costs is likely to force spending of surplus dollars that should go to Social Security and Medicare.

We ought to modernize Medicare.

We have to prove that our party can grow the economy, can get the deficit down, is committed to expanding trade, not running away from the globalized future we all face.

H.R. 2990 is not the answer.

We know that they can be present in areas where there are intense rivalries and still very much the possibility of misunderstanding between countries with this capacity.

It would be the height of irresponsibility to rely on the last line of defense to say, 'We're not going to test. You guys test.'

We have new, serious proliferation threats that our predecessors have not faced.

Now is the time to reach for the stars, not make a U-turn.

I think it was good preparation for the rest of his life and the constant, constant occasions he has had to call upon his steel nerves.

The spending of the surplus would have virtually no impact in expanding coverage to the uninsured.

Thank you for astonishing public service.

These are facts. This is not an argument anymore.

Let us show common restraint.

I think it ought to be about change, too.

A vote, therefore, to ratify is a vote to increase the protections of our people and the world from nuclear war.

H.R. 2990 contains certain provisions that the Administration supports, such as a 100 percent deduction for health insurance premiums for the self-employed.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Americans who were among the injured and all the victims and their families.

I think we start with the fact that the best way to constrain the danger of nuclear proliferation is to stop other countries from testing nuclear weapons.

I think that when they're old enough to watch the videotape of this ceremony, they will enjoy it a lot.

When we passed the economic plan in 1993—that did raise taxes on the wealthiest 1 1/2 percent of the American people, but cut taxes for 15 million working families and promised to reduce the deficit at least $500 billion.

Yesterday's defeat of Ronnie White's nomination for the Federal district court judgeship in Missouri was a disgraceful act of partisan politics.

I fervently believe, as all of you know, that this treaty will restrain the spread of nuclear weapons, while enabling us to maintain the effectiveness of our nuclear arsenal.

I want to offer my deepest sympathies to the families and friends of those who were injured or killed in yesterday's train crash in London.
