George Bush actually said...

"Late last week the President decided that Judge Mukasey was going to be his choice."

"Judge Mukasey's record of rulings in national security cases and experience as a criminal prosecutor make him exceptionally qualified to serve as our nation's chief law enforcement officer."

"Because of this progress, General Petraeus now believes we can maintain our security gains with fewer U.S. troops."

"The success of a free Iraq is critical to the security of the United States."
