“The biggest issue facing this country, as far as I’m concerned, is the security of the United States of America. I think about it every day. Every day I am briefed about the fact that there’s still an enemy that lurks, plans and plots and wants to kill Americans. I wish I did not have to report that. You know, when I campaigned here in 2000, I said, I want to be a war President. No President wants to be a war President, but I am one. Not because the United States chose war, but because an enemy chose to attack us. And these folks are lethal, and they are brutal. And the best way to deal with them is to bring them to justice before they can hurt the American people again.”
