I'm not apologetic with respect to the policies of the Bush administration. I think we basically got it right.

I'm more concerned with bad guys who got out and released than I am with a few that in fact were innocent.

I do find that the mainstream media oftentimes is what I would consider off base or has a bias.

I'm one of those people who believes that part of the greatness of the United States is our private sector. It's what we do as private citizens for ourselves and our companies. And our economy is essentially the wonder of the world because, in fact, it's produced so much for us over the years.

We do know, with absolute certainty, that Saddam Hussein is using his procurement system to acquire the equipment he needs in order to enrich uranium to build a nuclear weapon.

We've gotten a long way on missile defense. We know how to do it. We know how to take down incoming warheads, but we need to do a lot more work in order to be - to deploy a system that'll defend the United States against those kinds of limited strikes that might be possible by a nuclear armed North Korea or Iran.

The issue is that [Saddam] has chemical weapons.
