George H.W. Bush

We have every intention of fulfilling everything we've agreed to, and I trust the Japanese do.

I want to congratulate everybody around this table, and especially Secretary Brady and Secretary Mosbacher and Ambassador Carla Hills, for the fantastic job that all of you did.

I would say that for Prime Minister Kaifu and the other Japanese Government and party leaders -- they made success on all this -- trade and economic negotiations -- top priority.

Lest any of you feel like you can totally relax, there are some outstanding issues.

I announced my intention to nominate Patrick E. McFarland to be Inspector General in the Office of Personnel Management.

Title III fails to extend the 'good faith' exception to the exclusionary rule to cases involving warrantless searches and seizures.

Title II...would systematically overturn Supreme Court decisions that safeguard the finality of criminal judgments.

The likely result would be the invalidation of every death sentence now in effect and preclusion of all future use of capital punishment at both the State and Federal levels.

Such a reorganization would disrupt the Department's operations and impair its ability to combat effectively violent crime and drug trafficking.

This matter must be resolved peacefully.

It is very important when you have difficulties brewing that you have discussion.

No, I'm not disappointed.

It is very important that Canada and the United States be on the same wavelength as much as possible.

Our opinion is that this matter must be resolved peacefully.

I find these talks extraordinarily helpful.

And so, I am convinced that that is the way to go.

We have always enjoyed superb relations with Canada.

It's a good thing the summit date is set.

I've made our position very clear: a peaceful resolution to this question.

I think, rather clearly, that's a matter for Canada.

I consider phone calls and letters the same thing.

I think it's even more important to have good-faith negotiations when you have a situation of that nature.

I don't think you base the foreign policy of a country on any individual.

We care because the underpinning of our policy is self-determination, freedom, and democracy.

I do hereby proclaim the month of April 1990 as Cancer Control Month.
