States should have the right to enact laws... particularly to end the inhumane practice of ending a life that otherwise could live.

Our enemies are a radical network of terrorists - and every government that supports them.

The question is who ought to make that decision, the Congress or the commanders? And as you know, my position is clear. I'm a commander guy.

Americans spend 6 billion hours a year filling out their tax reforms.

You've just got to do what you think is right, and just make the decisions based upon noble causes. And a noble cause is peace and security and freedom.

I'm the commander -- see, I don't need to explain -- I do not need to explain why I say things. That's the interesting thing about being president.

And we will pursue nations that provide aid or safe haven to terrorism. Every nation in every region now has a decision to make: Either you are with us or you are with the terrorists. From this day forward, any nation that continues to harbor or support terrorism will be regarded by the United States as a hostile regime.
