No matter what your politics is, we ought to be thanking people for volunteering.

I believe we owe it to our children and grandchildren to stay engaged and to help spread liberty and to help reformers.

We'll find them. It'll be a matter of time to do so.

In the battle of Iraq, the United States and our allies have prevailed.

Imagine a world in which you had Saddam Hussein, who had the capacity to make a weapon of mass destruction, who was paying suiciders to kill innocent life. Imagine what the world would be like with him in power. The idea is to try to help change the Middle East. Part of the reason we went into Iraq was we thought he had weapons of mass destruction. It turns out he didn't, but he had the capacity to make weapons of mass destruction.

Deeply impressed with the blessing which we enjoy, and of which we have much manifold proofs, my mind is irresistibly drawn to that Almighty Being, the great source source from whence they proceed and whom our most grateful acknowledgements are due.

We ought to make the pie higher.
