Only a liberal senator from Massachusetts would say that a 49 percent increase in funding for education was not enough.
Senator Kerry has been in Washington long enough to take both sides on just about every issue.
The once all-powerful ruler of Iraq was found in a hole, and now sits in a prison cell.
The United States and our allies are determined: we refuse to live in the shadow of this ultimate danger.
The United States prefers that Iraq meet its obligations voluntarily, yet we are prepared for the alternative.
The terrorists are fighting freedom with all their cunning and cruelty because freedom is their greatest fear – and they should be afraid, because freedom is on the march.
I have zero desire, just so you know, to be in the limelight. I don’t think it’s good for the country to have a former president criticize his successor. You’re not going to see me giving my opinions in the public arena, until I start selling my book. I’m going to emerge then submerge.
I told you I’m not going to criticize my successor. I’ll just tell you that there are people at Gitmo that will kill American people at a drop of a hat and I don’t believe that persuasion isn’t going to work. Therapy isn’t going to cause terrorists to change their mind.

I believe in the transformational power of liberty. I believe that the free Iraq is in this nation’s interests. I believe a free Afghanistan is in this nation’s interest.
People make suggestions on what to say all the time. I’ll give you an example; I don’t read what’s handed to me. People say, ‘Here, here’s your speech, or here’s an idea for a speech.’ They’re changed. Trust me.
Some have argued that confronting the threat from Iraq could detract from the war against terror. To the contrary, confronting the threat posed by Iraq is crucial to winning the war on terror.
As yesterday’s positive report card shows, childrens do learn when standards are high and results are measured. – New York, Sept. 26, 2007.
I reads every chance I can gets.
I frankly felt like the reception we received on the way in from the airport was very warm and hospitable. And I want to thank the Canadian people who came out to wave – with all five fingers – for their hospitality.
I am a war president.
The important question is, How many hands have I shaked?
