It's a great day for the country. It's a greater day for the Iraqi people.
George H.W. Bush
The Public Record
George H.W. Bush was the 41st President of the United States, serving from January 20, 1989, to January 20, 1993. A member of the Republican Party, he previously held the office of Vice President under Ronald Reagan from 1981 to 1989. Bush was a World War II veteran and served in various roles within the U.S. government, including as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency from 1976 to 1977. His presidency is noted for significant events such as the Gulf War and the fall of the Berlin Wall, as well as his efforts in foreign policy and international diplomacy.
I think this is great news for the president, again not only on the presidential level, but when it comes to Congressional races as well.
The operation was based on the superb work of intelligence analysts who found the dictator's footprints in a vast country.
Now the former dictator of Iraq will face the justice he denied to millions.
We still face terrorists who would rather go on killing the innocent than accept the rise of liberty in the heart of the Middle East. Such men are a direct threat to the American people, and they will be defeated.
A hopeful day has arrived. All Iraqis can now come together and reject violence and build a new Iraq.
If there is an overcharge, like we think there is, we expect that money to be repaid.
It's very simple. Our people risk their lives. Coalition -- friendly coalition folks risk their lives, and therefore, the contracting is going to reflect that. And that's what the U.S. taxpayers expect.
George W. Bush has duly followed Skull and Bones agenda which is to get members into positions of power and then for those members to hire other members.
I don't think he took it as nonchalantly as he said. I mean, this is a guy who reportedly spent a weekend during his Skull and Bones year trying to get a tattoo of a skull and cross bones.
No qualms at all. I was honored. I fairly nonchalant. I didn't view it as a great heritage thing. I didn't take it all that seriously.
Mr. Bush says the U.S. policy is one china and opposes any decision to change the status quo.
Jewish settlements must be frozen, illegal outposts dismantled, and concerns about the West Bank barrier addressed.
Mankind is led into the darkness beyond our world by the inspiration of discovery and the longing to understand. Our journey into space will go on.
Some said Medicare reform could never be done. For the sake of our seniors, we've gotten something done. We're acting.
Bush and Prime Minister Tony Blair vowed to stand together on the fight on both fronts before the president left Britain.
The spread of freedom and the hope it brings is the surest way in the long term to combat despair and anger and resentment that feeds terror.
