George Bush actually said...

"May God bless you, and may God bless your families, and may God continue to bless the United States of America."

"I want you to know how grateful I am for your service and sacrifice and how proud I am to be your Commander in Chief."

"It is such a pleasure to be with the courageous men and women of the United States Armed Forces."

"The road ahead will be difficult and dangerous, but we can proceed with courage and with confidence."
