George Bush actually said...

"This week we express both our pride in public service and our appreciation for all those men and women who serve their fellow Americans as Federal employees."

"I really believe we will get satisfaction on that."

"Each and every American benefits daily, in numerous ways, from the work of Federal employees."

"I think that facilitated the battle in a way that's kept your loss of life, our loss of life way, way down from the earlier predictions."
