George Bush actually said...

"People want to make sure the United States is doing everything we can to protect ourselves."

"The facts are that after 9/11, this enemy continued to attack and kill innocent people."

"The danger is, is that al-Qaeda becomes an extension of Saddam's madness and his hatred and his capacity to extend weapons of mass destruction around the world."

"We need to provide our military and intelligence professionals with the tools they need to protect our country from another attack."
