On the recordFebruary 2, 1994
The President has asked, as we know, the Attorney General to appoint someone who will give us the facts. That person, Mr. Fiske, is going to provide those facts in due time, after due and considered deliberation. In fact, speaking of due deliberation, Mr. Fiske has now rented a building, or a floor in a building, in Little Rock, AR. And he signed a 3-year lease on it. So we are going to have a very, very thorough unearthing of all of the facts that relate to Whitewater.
