11. The words of bush, March 2002: "Fuck Saddam. We're taking him out."
http://www.democraticunderground.com/duforum/DCForumID66/10496.html

"F___ Saddam. We're taking him out." Those were the words of bush, who had poked his head into the office of National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice. It was March 2002, and Rice was meeting with three U.S. Senators, discussing how to deal with Iraq through the United Nations, or perhaps in a coalition with America's Middle East allies. bush wasn't interested. He waved his hand dismissively, recalls a participant, and neatly summed up his Iraq policy in that short phrase. The Senators laughed uncomfortably; Rice flashed a knowing smile. bush left the room.
