Nowhere on your list does Bush or any member of the Administration use the words quoted.....(the sole exception being McClellan who never gets it right).

Yeah but all that stuff could be interpreted different ways depending on what the meaning of "is" is.

President Delivers "State of the Union"
January 28, 2003
<font color=blue><font size=4>
...."Some have said we must not act until the threat is imminent.
Since when have terrorists and tyrants announced their intentions, politely putting us on notice before they strike? If this threat is permitted to fully and suddenly emerge, all actions, all words, and all recriminations would come too late. Trusting in the sanity and restraint of Saddam Hussein is not a strategy, and it is not an option.".....<font color=black><font size=3>

President Bush said....<font color=blue>"there is no such thing
necessarily in a dictatorial regime of ironclad absolutely
solid evidence."
Even absent such certainty, he said, the stakes were so
high that "it is essential that when we see a threat, we
deal with those threats before they become imminent.

"It's too late if they become imminent.".......
