| Description: | December 12, 1986 Remarks at a White House Briefing for the American Legislative Exchange Council, regarding the Iranian arms for hostages deal. Ronald Reagan admits that mistakes were made, but says it shouldn't interfere with the business of governing. "Let me just add a few words about the contreversey concerning Iran. Or haven't you heard about it? (laughter) I said in my radio speech last Saturday, there is no doubt mistakes were made. And I'll not be satisified until all the facts are before the Amreican people. That's what we've pledged to do and we can be proud that the Constitutional process is working. But let me say this, we can not and we will not, let this stop us from getting on with the business of governing." (Applause) | |
