President Bush traveled from Arizona, where he had spoken last night at a fundraising dinner for Senator John Kyl, today to El Paso, Texas to observe the situation at the border, and confer with Texas Governor, Rick Perry, answering a few questions from the press. From there he flew to Denver, Colorado where he appeared at a fundraiser for U.S. Representative, Marilyn Musgrave.

The War in Iraq received strong support today from Senator Joe Lieberman following his fourth trip to Iraq, when he deliniated the across the board progress made in that country. Secretary of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld came out swinging at a Pentagon briefing in support of the increasing strength of the Iraqi army. Tomorrow President Bush will give a major speech on Iraq at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland.

Quote of the Day: THE PRESIDENT: Look, here's what I'm interested in. I'm interested in winning. I want to defeat the terrorists. And I want our troops to come home. But I don't want them to come home without having achieved victory, and we've got a strategy for victory. And the commanders will make the decision. See, that's what the people want. The people don't want me making decisions based upon politics; they want me to make decisions based upon the recommendation from our generals on the ground. And that's exactly who I'll be listening to.

Now, I know there's a lot of voices in Washington. We've heard some people say, pull them out right now. That's a huge mistake. It'd be a terrible mistake. It sends a bad message to our troops and it sends a bad message to our enemy and it sends a bad message to the Iraqis.

So my decision will be based upon the capacity of the - the willingness of our commanders to say, the Iraqis are taking more of the fight and, therefore, the conditions are such that we can reduce our troop presence.
