I thought I would share some quotes from the state of the union adress these are all taken from CNN's copy of the speech.
"The evil that inspired and rejoiced in 9/11 is still at work in the world. And so long as that is the case, America is still a nation at war." - Bush.
"By killing and terrorizing Americans, they want to force our country to retreat from the world and abandon the cause of liberty."-Bush
"The Shia and Sunni extremists are different faces of the same totalitarian threat. But whatever slogans they chant, when they slaughter the innocent, they have the same wicked purposes. They want to kill Americans, kill democracy in the Middle East and gain the weapons to kill on an even more horrific scale."-Bush
"Despite endless threats from the killers in their midst, nearly 12 million Iraqi citizens came out to vote in a show of hope and solidarity we should never forget."-Bush
"Ladies and gentlemen: On this day, at this hour, it is still within our power to shape the outcome of this battle. So let us find our resolve, and turn events toward victory."-Bush
"We did not drive al Qaeda out of their safe haven in Afghanistan only to let them set up a new safe haven in a free Iraq."-Bush
"The war on terror we fight today is a generational struggle that will continue long after you and I have turned our duties over to others."-Bush
It would be a lie to say that I have no opinion on the war on terror or our President, I just felt like sharing some of the lines that stuck out to me while I was reading it. take what you want from them. I know what they mean to me.
