*** President Reagan June 29, 1985 "We should begin by recognizing that spying is a fact of life... (But) we can counter this hostile threat and still remain true to our values. We don't need to fight repression by becoming repressive ourselves... But we need to put our cleverness and determination to work, and we need to deal severely with those who betray our country... There is no quick fix to this problem. Without hysteria or finger-pointing, let us move calmly and deliberately together to protect freedom." |
