George Bush actually said...

"I'm proud of my secretary of state. He's done a heck of a good job."

"What this world needs is steady, rock-solid leaders who stand on principle. And that's what the prime minister means to me."

"... months ahead, offering a new opportunity to make progress toward a lasting peace."

"All that we hope to achieve together requires that America and Europe remain close partners. We are the pillars of the free world."
