George Bush actually said...

"President Bush is getting advice on Iraq from a rather unlikely source outside his inner circle."

"We take to heart your advice and appreciate your experience."

"Today, our nation mourns those who lost their lives in the mining accident in West Virginia. We send our prayers and heartfelt condolences to the loved ones whose hearts are broken."

"President Bush is predicting U.S. troop levels will soon drop in Iraq. He says the mission this year is to continue to hand over more territory and responsibility to Iraqi forces."
