George W. Bush
I think a lot of the national Democrats believe that, you know, Iraq is a distraction and not part of the War on Terror. They've said so. And I strongly disagree.
George W. Bush
Together, we will reclaim America's schools, before ignorance and apathy claim more young lives.
George W. Bush
They've seen me make decisions, they've seen me under trying times, they've seen me weep, they've seen me laugh, they've seen me hug. And they know who I am, and I believe they're comfortable with the fact that they know I'm not going to shift principles or shift positions based upon polls and focus groups.
George W. Bush
Here in USA we respect someone's rights, and as we profess tolerance, we shouldn't change - or have to change - our basic views on the sanctity of marriage. I believe in the sanctity of marriage. I think it's very important that we protect marriage as an institution, between a man and a woman.
George W. Bush
One thing you had to learn [after the presidency] was that you no longer had the sense of responsibility that became ingrained in your system.

George W. Bush
