George H.W. Bush
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.
That's the truth. I guess that's why yesterday my subconscious spoke up, and by accident, and it was an accident, down there in the South, I actually called him ``Governor Taxes.'' And I'm sorry, I apologize. Audience members. Bush! Bush…
I knew you wouldn't like that one--mobile homes, cable TV, used cars, airplanes, coal. He was even taxing food stamps until the Federal Government forced him to stop. Audience members. Boo-o-o!
The NPS study concluded that excellent facilities already exist for Lincoln research and interpretation in Springfield, Illinois.
This would duplicate, at substantial additional cost, existing facilities that provide ample means for interpreting the life of President Lincoln.
The bill fails to protect sufficiently the interests of the private landowners both within and outside the boundaries of the proposed monument.
I therefore direct the drawdown of commodities and services from the inventory and resources of the Department of Defense of an aggregate value not to exceed $2 million in support of peacekeeping operations in Nagorno-Karabakh.
Abraham Lincoln is revered throughout the world as a symbol of freedom and democracy — he holds a unique position in American history.
That's what we want. You know, the choice before the American people is really clear. Governor Clinton has already started with his program. He wants more Government and higher taxes. That is bad for America. Audience members. Boo-o-o!
I am very proud to be back home. We are going to carry Texas, and we are going to win this election because we are right on the issues and because I have been telling the truth all along. Thank you very, very much. May God bless you all…
Ensuring equal opportunities for persons with disabilities is not only a serious moral and legal obligation, it is also good business sense.
The FEMA funds will be used to provide individuals and families with temporary housing assistance and to provide loans and grants for the repair and replacement of property.
This Act also provides $500 million in FY 1993 appropriations, subject to the enactment of authorizing legislation, for urban aid to distressed cities.
The ADA, which prohibits discrimination in employment, public accommodations, transportation, and communications, provides a model for people everywhere.
Only by remembering the lessons of the past can we ensure our liberty and security in the future.
It is fitting that, in addition to honoring the memory of our fallen military personnel, we also salute the women who nurtured them.
As you conclude this period of repentance with the Day of Atonement -- a day dedicated to forgiveness and renewal -- you will affirm your belief in the mercy and justice of our Creator.
We never back down. We never give up. We never retreat. We always compete. And we always win.
This month is a special time for all Americans to recognize the tremendous potential of persons with disabilities.
Today I am signing into law H.R. 5620, an Act that provides supplemental appropriations for disaster assistance to meet urgent needs resulting from Hurricane Andrew, Hurricane Iniki, and Typhoon Omar.
I think it is fitting to stand here with people who represent the very backbone of the American economy.
