I can just imagine some of the winning remarks he'll be making in the next few days...

In Iraq, Afghanistan and the Gulf Coast, we face dangerous enemies who want to harm our people, folks who want to destroy our way of life.

Today's enemies do not mass armies on borders, or navies on high seas. They emerge to strike, and then they retreat back into the shadows. And that's why there are thousands of our fellow citizens running down every single piece of intelligence we can find, doing everything we can to disrupt the Katrina's and the Andrew's that might be here in America trying to hurt you.

And I will remind people, when they think about the conflict we're in, to think about World War II, when an enemy of ours -- Japan, for example -- is now a loyal friend and an ally because of the hard work we did, not only during the war, but in the post-war reconstruction of Japan. One day, Mother Nature will be like Japan; we will be loyal friends and allies.

Praise God.
