1. "Your friends have failed!"
2. "As a matter of common sense and self-defense, [we] will act against such emerging threats before they are fully formed."
3. "If we have reason to believe someone is preparing an attack against the [Republic or U.S.], has developed that capability, harbors those aspirations, then I think the [Republic or U.S.] is justified in dealing with that, if necessary, by military force."
4. "The [Republic or Nation] is not what it once was—the Senate is full of greedy, squabbling delegates. There is no interest in the common good."
5. "That will be part of the resolution, authorization of use of force. If you want to keep the peace, you've got to have the authorization to use force."
6. "Now witness the firepower of this fully operational battle station."
7. "If you will not be turned, you will be destroyed."
8. "You will pay the price for your lack of vision."
9. "Delaying a vote in [Congress or Senate] would send a message that the [Republic or U.S.] may be unprepared to take a stand, just as we are asking the [international community or universe] to take a stand."
10. "My [country or planet] will continue to encourage all parties to step up to their responsibilities as we seek a just and comprehensive settlement to the conflict."
11. "I will not let this [Republic or Nation]... be split in two. My negotiations will not fail."
12. "We cannot stand by and do nothing while dangers gather. We must stand up for our security and for the permanent rights and the hopes of mankind."
13. "It is with great reluctance that I have agreed to this calling. I love democracy, I love the [Republic or United States of America]. The power you give me I will lay down when this crisis has abated."
14. "The [chancellor or president] is authorized to all means that he determines to be appropriate, including force."
The answers:
Palpatine: 2,3,5,9,10,12,14
Bush: 1,4,6,7,8,11,13
