George W. Bush

People are having tough times in America.

I'm optimistic about the U.S. economy.

Get to work, and get something done.

Our country is resolved.

This funding... will enhance accountability and foster improved student achievement.

American veterans preserved our world and freedom, and we should honor them.

Our Nation will always be grateful for the noble sacrifices made by these veterans.

We're a nation of patriots.

We must remember that many who served in our military never lived to be called veterans.

We must never flinch in the face of adversity, and we won't.

Today, there are more than 25 million living veterans who served our Nation in times of peace and war.

This is a nation that is resolved to win.

Let us honor our veterans, who proved their heroism and love of country time and again.

May God bless Africa, and may God continue to bless America.

We share the same threats, and we share the same goal: to forge a future of more openness, trade, and freedom.

I am pleased and gratified that these experienced individuals have agreed to serve their country at this critical time in the White House Office of Homeland Security.

We need to build on these successes.

My Government will continue its strong support for responsible debt relief, so that nations can devote more resources to education and health.

This law is just over a year, but it is already showing its tremendous power.

I know we can build a world that grows in prosperity and trades in freedom.

We offer a better way.

We will fight and defeat the forces of evil wherever they are.

The United States is deeply grateful to all countries and all African countries that have now joined in a great coalition against terror.

Every nation that adopts this vision will find in America a trading partner, an investor, and a friend.

The new law recognizes the realities and dangers posed by the modern terrorist.
