One of my childhood memories concerns what my mother said when I had done something particularly stupid. I have no recollection of what that action was, but I have a very clear recollection of my mother’s reaction: (more…)
As provided by the White House–March 25, 1998
Thank you, Mr. President. First, let me thank you, Mr. President, and Vice President Kagame, and your wives for making Hillary and me and our delegation feel so welcome.
