George Bush actually said...

"The willingness of America's veterans to sacrifice for our country has earned them our lasting gratitude."

"Iraq is the central front now in this war on terrorism."

"Iraqis want a better future, and we're there to help them build it."

"When we were attacked on September 11th and lost 3,000 lives in one day, the President made clear that we were going to fight this war on the offensive."
