“I’m a patient man. And when I say I’m a patient man, I mean I’m a patient
man. Nothing he [Saddam Hussein] has done has convinced me � I’m confident the
Secretary of Defense � that he is the kind of fellow that is willing to forgo
weapons of mass destruction, is willing to be a peaceful neighbor, that is �
will honor the people � the Iraqi people of all stripes, will � values human
life. He hasn’t convinced me, nor has he convinced my administration.” �George
W. Bush, Crawford, Texas.
