It’s fascinating to see conservatives tossing around quotes from pols they hold in contempt (most conspicuously Clinton) to try and prove…well, I’m not sure what.
But if quotes mean so much, then let’s have a few more, all of which underscore Bush’s commitment to a vision and his world-respected ability to express himself. Please be aware…there are no typos in any of the below. They’re “as is.”
I think our troops ought to be used to fight and win war. But in this case, it was a nation-building exercise. And same with Haiti. I wouldn’t have supported either. (GWB, 2000)
(W)e can’t be all things to all people in the world. I am worried about over-committing our military around the world. I want to be judicious in its use. I don’t think nation-building missions are worthwhile. (GWB, 2000)
But the use of the military needs to be in our vital interest. The mission needs to be clear and the exit strategy obvious. (GWB, 2000)
This country has no designs on Cuba’s soverty; we have no designs on the soverty of Cuba. (GWB, 2002)
The goals for this country are peace in the world. And the goals for this country are a compassionate American for every single citizen. (GWB, 2002)
Parents and educators will not be bystandards in education reform. (GWB, 2003)
These are folks that have hijacked a great religion and then take innocent life. And that’s a huge difference between America. (GWB 2002)
In my attitude, it doesn’t matter how high the hurdle is, we’ll cross it. (GWB 2003)
I promise you I will listen to what has been said here, even though I wasn’t here. (GWB 2002)
