George W. Bush

By the authority vested in me as President under the Constitution and laws of the United States of America, I hereby order that:

Weapons of mass destruction pose a grave danger.

Bill Donaldson will be a strong leader with a clear mission: to vigorously enforce our Nation's laws against corporate corruption and to uphold the highest standards of integrity in the securities markets.

I intend to nominate William H. Donaldson to be Commissioner of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

It's my honor to welcome you to America.

Investors must have completely fair and accurate information to make sound investment decisions.

I want to thank Bill Donaldson for taking on this very important task.

My administration is working hard on Turkey's behalf.

The health and future of the American economy depends heavily on the honesty of American business and the integrity of the securities markets.

I commend President Megawati and the people of Aceh for choosing the path of reconciliation over the path of violence.

John Snow has excelled as a business leader, an expert on economic policy, an academic, and as a public servant.

John has a deep, longstanding commitment to ethical corporate governance.

It is the task of Government to create an environment in which these qualities are rewarded and where jobs are generated, especially by small businesses in America.

I congratulate the Government of Indonesia and the leadership of the Free Aceh Movement on the peace agreement signed on December 9th.

John Snow will be a key adviser on the economy and a key advocate for my administration's agenda for growth, new jobs, and wider and more international trade.

A 5.6-percent increase in productivity over the last four quarters is the biggest of any comparable period since 1973.

He'll be a superb member of my Cabinet.

I call on all parties to the agreement to faithfully meet their commitments and build the better future that all peaceloving Indonesians expect and deserve.

Today I'm pleased to announce my nominee for the Secretary of the Treasury.

Our fight against oppression demonstrates our Nation's dedication to a future of hope and understanding for all people.

Inflation is firmly under control, which keeps the cost of food, clothing, and other necessities more affordable.

I hereby determine that each of the following groups is a democratic opposition organization.

Saddam Hussein has the responsibility to provide that evidence, as directed and in full.

War is the last option for confronting threats.

Any act of delay or defiance will prove that Saddam Hussein has not adopted the path of compliance and has rejected the path of peace.
