Give me a chance to be your president and America will be safer and stronger and better.
George W. BushIf our commanders on the ground say we need more troops, I will send them. But our commanders tell me they have the number of troops they need to do their job. Sending more Americans would undermine our strategy of encouraging Iraqis to take the lead in this fight. And sending more Americans would suggest that we intend to stay forever, when we are, in fact, working for the day when Iraq can defend itself and we can leave.
George W. BushThe easiest time to be faithful is during a time of crisis. The hardest time for faith is when all is well.
