This release contains White House Exchange Mail records dated January 1998 to October 1999. Most of it is a transcript of a January 29, 1998 press briefing by Press Secretary Mike McCurry covering Iraq, Iran, the budget and the Lewinsky inquiry, plus a 1998 presidential speech.

Thank you, Congressman Miller, and thank you, Nancy Pelosi, for bein;
here and
for your leadership. I told some people — we were just at a larger recept
over at the Fairmont, and I told the people there that the thing I really lil
about Nancy Pelosi was she'd been in Washington a long time and she s
had not
managed to become cynical. She's still full of energy and passion and
conviction. And we need more of that there.
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you. You know, that was a better speech thai
one I
was going to give. (Laughter.) Thank you, Bill. Thank you, Sally. I am

I'd also like to thank all of you in this room who have helped me and Hi

people of California, and the people of this community, in particular, ha
