I wasn't happy when we found out there wasn't weapons, and we've got an intelligence group together to figure out why.
First of all, we didn't find out he didn't have weapons until we got there.
I love our values. And I recognize I've made some decisions that have caused people to not understand the great values of our country.
It also means that we can target things easier and move more quickly, which means we need to be lighter and quicker and more facile and highly trained.
Liberty can change habits. And that's what's happening in Afghanistan and Iraq.
You can run, but you can't hide. He voted 98 times to raise taxes. I mean, these aren't make-up figures.
I have -- was fought for a very strong title in the farm bill for the conservation reserve program to set aside millions of acres of land to help improve wildlife and the habitat.
What happens in those forests, because of lousy federal policy, is they grow to be -- they are not -- they're not harvested.
That's why I proposed a hydrogen automobile -- hydrogen-generated automobile.
It's one of these deals where, in order to be popular in the halls of Europe, you sign a treaty.
And then there is this exchange: How did Bush know that tax cuts for the middle class were coming up?
GIBSON: I want to extend for a minute, Senator. And I'm curious about something you said. You said, "It's not when, but if." You think it's inevitable because the sense of security is a very basic thing with everybody in this country worried about their kids.
KERRY: Well, the president and his experts have told America that it's not a question of if; it's a question of when. And I accept what the president has said. These terrorists are serious, they're deadly, and they know nothing except trying to kill. I understand that. That's why I will never stop at anything to hunt down and kill the terrorists. But you heard the president just say to you that we've added money.
Folks, the test is not if you've added money; the test is that you've done everything possible to make America secure. He chose a tax cut for wealthy Americans over the things that I listed to you.
GIBSON: Mr. President?
BUSH: Well, we'll talk about the tax cut for middle class here in a minute. But yes, I'm worried. I'm worried. I'm worried about our country. And all I can tell you is every day I know that there's people working overtime, doing the very best they can. And the reason I'm worried is because there's a vicious enemy that has an ideology of hate. And the way to defeat them long-term, by the way, is to spread freedom. Liberty can change habits. And that's what's happening in Afghanistan and Iraq.
