"We did not charge hundreds of miles into the heart of Iraq, pay a bitter cost of casualties, defeat a ruthless dictator and liberate 25 million people only to retreat before a band of thugs and assassins."
George W. Bush

War is an ugly thing but not the ugliest of things;
the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling
which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse.
A man who has nothing for which he is willing to fight;
nothing he cares about more than his personal safety;
is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free,
unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
John Stuart Mill
9/11 is EVERY YEAR. DON'T FORGET!
If we cease to care; if we ever forget:
We will owe the unpayable debt.
Blood and fury cry out from the ground;
Our heads still echo from the sound.
The lives that ended that day
The twisted wreckage, raw and gray;
Still haunt our memory as they must;
If we forget we will become dust.

"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much because they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat." --- Theodore Roosevelt
"Failure to act would embolden other tyrants, allow terrorists access to new weapons and new resources, and make blackmail a permanent feature of world events. The United Nations would betray the purpose of its founding, and prove irrelevant to the problems of our time. And through its inaction, the United States would resign itself to a future of fear."That is not the America I know. That is not the America I serve.
We refuse to live in fear."
-- George W. Bush
