I am very comfortable with the strategic decisions that I made.

I don't make any apologies for what I do on the campaign trail.

I walked away from Kyoto because it would damage America's economy, you bet. It would have destroyed our economy. It was a lousy deal for the American economy. I felt there was a better way.

We're supposed to have guns. It says so in the Bible; and the second greatest book ever written, the Texas State Constitution.

We have learned that terrorist attacks are not caused by the use of strength; they are invited by the perception of weakness. And the surest way to avoid attacks on our own people is to engage the enemy where he lives and plans. We are fighting that enemy in Iraq and Afghanistan today so that we do not meet him again on our own streets, in our own cities.

There's no question that the minute I got elected, the storm clouds on the horizon were getting nearly directly overhead.

Should any Iraqi officer or soldier receive an order from Saddam Hussein.... don't follow that order. Because if you choose to do so, when Iraq is liberated, you will be treated, tried and persecuted as a war criminal.
