While many of our citizens prosper, others doubt the promise, even the justice, of our own country.

We do not accept this, and we will not allow it. View quote

I have often spoken to you about good and evil. This has made some uncomfortable. But good and evil are present in this world, and between the two there can be no compromise.

This nation must continue to speak out for justice and truth. We must always be willing to act in their defense and to advance the cause of peace. View quote
George W. Bush
