----on the Supreme Court. No, we can't let that happen. You talk about a disaster, that would be it. In crime--let me tell you why. We must back up these law enforcement officers who are out there on that street for you and me every single…
Now, here's the bad news for Clinton and the Ozone Man. Here it is. You know who I mean by the Ozone Man. I'll tell you why I call--he and Governor Clinton, Ozone and Clinton--[laughter]--they want to put CAFE standards--that's the fuel…
Change is all you'll have in your pocket if you put that guy into the White House. Audience members. Four more years! Four more years! Four more years!
No, no, wait a minute. No, they said he had no chance, that he was 10 points back a night before the election. And here he is, Governor of Michigan. And he's a great Governor. May I also thank Bruce Willis who is with us. I'll tell you…
Thank you very much. May I start by paying my respects and giving my profound thanks to Gerald R. Ford, a great President, a wonderful friend, and a terrific guy. You guys are fired up. Of course, I am very proud that John Engler is…
Yes, I'm sorry. I've got to do it. Here's the way they stand after 10 years of Governor Clinton. They are 50th in the quality of environmental concerns. They are 50th in the percentage of adults with a college degree. That's it. They are…
A little pathetic. They feel it slipping away from them. They know it's moving away from them. They know we're going to win the election. I'm delighted to be here. And the decision that people make is going to be a tre- mendous difference…
We'll get them. You know, last week--I want to mention the Utah--look at these characters. Kind of sad, isn't it? A little pathetic. Audience members. Boo-o-o!
A market-oriented water policy will create new jobs in the California economy.
You might call this old-fashioned idea trample-down economics: Tramples down business with these deadly new mandates and regulations.
States should retain primacy in fashioning their policies regarding water.
Fame is a vapor, popularity an accident, riches take wing; only character endures.
When you enter that voting booth, please ask yourself three commonsense questions:
Character matters, not just because of the plans you make but the crisis you never foresee.
We do not need to do, I will say this to the auto workers in this State, what Governor Clinton and Ozone want to do.
This bill will provide substantial economic and environmental benefits throughout the West.
The real question is not who is for change but whose change will make your life better and make the world safer.
I am signing into law H.R. 429, the 'Reclamation Projects Authorization and Adjustment Act of 1992.'
It boils down to experience, to a difference in philosophy, and yes, it boils down to character.
Okay. Don't move. Note: The question-and-answer session began at 7 p.m. at the Ohio Historical Society. Moderators for the session were Gary Robinson, president of the Ohio Association of Broadcasters, and Columbus television anchors Doug…
I think it would be most appropriate if I started walking down to say hello to Nellie before she changes her mind back there at 91. [Laughter] Moderator. I think that's a great idea.
We're going to do that after this. You may be--let's see, you're 90--I don't want to--we're in the historical society here. My dad was born here and grew up here. Maybe he might have taken you to the prom someplace. I'll have to come back…
