American politician & U.S. President (1946- )
They want the federal government controlling Social Security, like it's some kind of federal program.
GEORGE W. BUSH
speech at campaign stop, November 2, 2000
One of the important lessons of September the 11th, 2001 is that our country must deal with gathering threats before they materialize, before they come back to haunt us. And that's what we did in Iraq.

Embryonic stem cell research is at the leading edge of a series of moral hazards.
GEORGE W. BUSH
Address to the Nation on Stem Cell Research, August 9, 2001
For the sake of protecting our friends and allies, the United States will lead a mighty coalition of freedom-loving nations and disarm Saddam Hussein. See, I can't imagine what was going through the mind of this enemy when they hit us. They probably thought the national religion was materialism, that we were so selfish and so self-absorbed that after 9/11/2001 this mighty nation would take a couple of steps back and file a lawsuit.
GEORGE W. BUSH
remarks by the President in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, November 1, 2002
I like to tell people when the final history is written on Iraq, it will look like just a comma because there is -- my point is, there's a strong will for democracy.

As Iraqis stand up, we will stand down.
GEORGE W. BUSH
address at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, June 2005
States like these, and their terrorist allies, constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world. By seeking weapons of mass destruction, these regimes pose a grave and growing danger. They could provide these arms to terrorists, giving them the means to match their hatred. They could attack our allies or attempt to blackmail the United States. In any of these cases, the price of indifference would be catastrophic.
GEORGE W. BUSH
State of the Union Address, January 29, 2002
Listen, as Commander-in-Chief, I grieve for any loss of life. And I stand in -- I send my deepest sympathies to the loved ones who grieve over the loss of a soldier, a loved one. But the cause is a good cause, because we will never forget the lessons of 9/11. This is a part of the war on terror. And the effect of what we have done in Iraq and what we're doing in Iraq will be a very positive effect on future generations of Americans, and that's very important for people to understand.
GEORGE W. BUSH
Armed Forces Radio, August 18, 2003
Looking across this field, we see the scale of heroism and sacrifice. All who are buried here understood their duty. All stood to protect America. And all carried with them memories of a family that they hoped to keep safe by their sacrifice.
GEORGE W. BUSH
remarks on Memorial Day, 2005
The peaceful transfer of authority is rare in history, yet common in our country. With a simple oath, we affirm old traditions and make new beginnings.
