We're Not Running Out Of [fixed] Targets.

The Worst Mistake Is To Have The Best Ladder And The Wrong Wall.

If I Look At The Really Important Questions In [middle East] Region, I See Iran, Where There Is A Strong Desire For A Freer Society And Where People Are Repressed By A Small Group Of Ayatollahs. I See Syria, Where We Can See A Similar Desire Of The People To Be Free. These Two Countries Fund Hezbollah And Other Terrorist Organizations And Are Hurting Our Efforts In Afghanistan And Have Been Extremely Harmful In Iraq. Then I Also See Large, Important Countries Such As Egypt And Saudi Arabia.

If In Doubt, Move Decisions Up To The President.

What Is Needed [to Combat Terrorism], In My View, Is Resolve, Not Retreat; Courage, Not Concession. Rather Than Thinking In Terms Of An Exit Strategy, Focus On A Strategy For Success.

I Suppose The Implication Of That Is The President And The Vice President And Myself And Colin Powell Just Fell Off A Turnip Truck To Take These Jobs.
