I Want To Help People Help Themselves,

As Americans, We Want Peace - We Work And Sacrifice For Peace. But There Can Be No Peace If Our Security Depends On The Will And Whims Of A Ruthless And Aggressive Dictator. I'm Not Willing To Stake One American Life On Trusting Saddam Hussein.

And I Am An Optimistic Person. I Guess If You Want To Try To Find Something To Be Pessimistic About, You Can Find It, No Matter How Hard You Look, You Know?

I Like My Buddies From West Texas. I Liked Them When I Was Young; I Liked Them When I Was Middle-age; I Liked Them Before I Was President; And I Like Them During President; And I Like Them After President.

Over The Past Month, Muslims Have Fasted, Taking No Food Or Water During Daylight Hours, In Order To Refocus Their Minds On Faith And Redirect Their Hearts To Charity. Muslims Worldwide Have Stretched Out A Hand Of Mercy To Those In Need. Charity Tables At Which The Poor Can Break Their Fast Line The Streets Of Cities And Towns. And Gifts Of Food And Clothing And Money Are Distributed To Ensure That All Share In God's Abundance. Muslims Often Invite Members Of Other Families To Their Evening Iftar Meals, Demonstrating A Spirit Of Tolerance.

The Advance Of Human Freedom - The Great Achievement Of Our Time, And The Great Hope Of Every Time - Now Depends On Us. Our Nation - This Generation - Will Lift A Dark Threat Of Violence From Our People And Our Future. We Will Rally The World To This Cause By Our Efforts, By Our Courage. We Will Not Tire, We Will Not Falter, And We Will Not Fail.
