George W. Bush Quotes, Government Quotes, Self Quotes

Politicians fear that any weakening of family life will in some way sap the vitality of national life.... The family is also important to businessmen.

So let us take our fair share of the true refugees and act responsible as a government in providing for their necessary expenses. Let us stop skewing the whole process by taking some folks who are not truly refugees in order simply to meet our foreign policy needs or domestic policy demands. There has to be a better way to meet those needs and demands than we are doing now. I think it is embarrassing to all of us who truly know the mission of the Refugee Act.
