"George W. Bush: We are showing the people of the Middle East that America stands firmly for liberty and justice and peace. And we are leaving the next President with a stable foundation for the future, and an approach that can enjoy broad bipartisan support at home. There is still more work to be done. The war is not yet over, but with the conclusion of these agreements and the courage of the Iraqi people and the Iraqi troops and American troops and civilian personnel, it is decisively on its way to being won. Shukran jazeelan [Thank you]. : [in Arabic] This is a gift from the Iraqis! This is the farewell kiss, you dog! This is for the widows and orphans and all those killed in Iraq!"
