MY FAVORITE MOMENT FROM THE PRESIDENT'S SPEECH

Yesterday, at Fort Campbell, before the Screaming Eagles and the 5th Special Forces

September the 11th, 2001 taught a lesson I will never forget. America must confront threats before they fully materialize.

In Iraq, my administration looked at the intelligence information, and we saw a threat.

Members of Congress looked at the intelligence, and they saw a threat.

The United Nations Security Council looked at the intelligence, and it saw a threat.

I had a choice to make, either take the word of a madman, or take such threats seriously and defend America. Faced with that choice, I will defend America every time.

Yes, Sir, Mr. President. And God bless you for it.
