I think you're excellent choices for the jobs that you're about to take on, and I'm sure you'll be confirmed by the Senate.

I think the U.S. Army, and particularly the National Guard, are training the police.

So they're not held in high regard, they don't have an air force, they don't have any armor, but they're winning.

I think the cost of the Afghan Army at that level's going to be $3 or $4 billion, at the very minimum.

the American people need to understand this is going to be difficult, it's going to be more expensive, more lives are going to be lost, but I hope we understand, as a Nation, the consequences of losing.

You either win or you lose, and I think everybody wants to win.
