The Public Record
George H.W. Bush was the 41st President of the United States, serving from January 20, 1989, to January 20, 1993. A member of the Republican Party, he previously held the office of Vice President under Ronald Reagan from 1981 to 1989. Bush was a World War II veteran and served in various roles within the U.S. government, including as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency from 1976 to 1977. His presidency is noted for significant events such as the Gulf War and the fall of the Berlin Wall, as well as his efforts in foreign policy and international diplomacy.
You know what would help in this regard is this whole broad concept of enterprise zones. And what it says is to give breaks to businesses to move to areas where you really are adversely impacted by unemployment. I think that concept makes…
I want to ask how it's going. I know it's a one-way deal, I'm sup- posed to answer. But is this approach to education helping?
I oppose gun control. It's a good time to point it out in the first day of the big game hunting season out here. I'm surprised there's this many people in here. [Laughter] But I'm delighted to see you. I am a hunter, and I'm a fisherman…
Never mind. No, we don't want any of that. Senator Burns. Mr. President, welcome to Montana. Okay, do we have a question here? Just pick one out. Got a hand right here from a young man right there, Mr. President.
Thank you. I feel like Phil Donahue, sitting here. Thank you for that great welcome to the Big Sky country. Thank you so much. Please be seated. Audience members. Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!
Thank you, Governor. Thank you, South Dakota. Thanks for that welcome. Audience members. Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!
Let me interrupt just simply to say one, thank you. And I think the Federal Government did respond. But in fairness, a lot of the local officials, some Democrat, some Republican, responded masterfully. And something else happened…
Well, that's the program we're using in health care, and yes, that might be a very good approach for business. But I believe it ought to be done through the auspices of business without the Government in it. But it can be done, because…
Andy, I wish I had an easy answer for you on that one. I'm thinking here as to how that can be done. The only way it's going to be done is through more competition. Maybe that will come with more growth. But in terms of saying to you…
All right. I like it so far, a very compatible group and very friendly people. And I would repeat I used to have offices down here, our company, little companies down in Morgan City and Cameron and Ulma and indeed for Lafayette for a…
Canada October 23, 1992 Dear Mr. Chairman: Pursuant to section 103 of the United States-Canada Free-Trade Agreement Implementation Act of 1988 (Public Law 100-449), I am pleased to submit the attached report and related documents…
Kind of interesting debate, though. Mr. Wills. ----but I've got to move on to Tampa-St. Petersburg for our next question, sir. The Character Issue
But I am told that when they go back there, there is not this persecution. You've raised it; let me take a look at it. Aristide going back, we support that. I've got to be a little careful as President on what I say about him and how it…
I'd rather do it through enterprise zones. I'd rather do it through tax breaks to bring jobs into the inner cities. That's my priority. And it's a program--when L.A. blew up, L.A., South Central, the Mayor, the Governor, and Peter…
No, no. The answer is no to all of the above. But I do oppose abortion. You know, I think it's wrong to have 28 million abortions over the last few years. I don't believe you ought to have abortion for a--put it this way: If a 13-year-old…
The IPAA has just suggested that the legislation we signed will result in 45,000 more jobs in the oil patch next year.
Today I am signing into law H.R. 5095, the 'Intelligence Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1993.'
I believe that this act opens a new era in which Government acts not as a master but as a partner and the servant.
Oh, golly, I sure will. It's been the craziest year. With all respect, and present company excluded, I've never seen the media in such--the one I get the biggest kick out of--I hold up a bumper sticker that says, ``Annoy the Media. Reelect…
Americans for Disabilities Act really is helpful to the disabled. The other, second part of it: Do not fool around with Social Security benefits. Don't touch them. I pledged to the Congress in the State of the Union, do not mess with…
Try to pass laws to crack down on them. And we have to do that. It is simply unfair, and we submitted legislation again that I think makes sense. They don't get the passport. They don't get a lot of things that the Federal Government can…
Politicians like George H.W. Bush
