Bush ripped off the "tire, falter, fail" remark from Churchill.
He said it right after 9/11 and said it again at the Pentagon memorial dedication today. He also gave us a "fight them there so we don't fight them here". A "forces of terror", I assume they reside in Terrorland, where they presumably speak Arabic. He threw in a "water of life", don't know what the fuck that means. Also a new Bushism, "But each day on this year" yup, sounds about right, you invoke 9/11 on everyday of the year. Oh, and Rumsferatu was a first responder on 9/11... hardly. At the end there are a couple of Orwellian "Peace is War" references.
