President Bush visits U.S. Army War College

The White House - [On Wednesday, December 17th] President Bush Discusses National Security, Homeland Security and the Freedom Agenda at U.S. Army War College in Carlisle, Pennsylvania (Read full transcript)

Excerpt: In the broader struggle between freedom and terror, people around the world have made their choice clear. In Afghanistan, eight million men and women went to the polls to elect a president for the first time in their history. In Iraq, 12 million people defied the terrorists and elected a representative government. You know, one of the things I'll never forget are the ink-stained fingers of people who had a chance to vote their conscience. In countries from Liberia and Lebanon to Georgia and Ukraine, citizens have taken to the streets to cast off the chains of tyranny, and demand their God-given right for freedom. And around the world, more people live in liberty than at any other time in human history.
