Well, there goes the rest of our "capital".

<snip>
PRESIDENT BUSH: I think it is fair to say that I believe we've got a great chance to establish a Palestinian state, and I intend to use the next four years to -- to spend the capital of the United States on -- on such a state.</snip>

This is from the press conference today, with Blair. I think was trying to say something here, but not sure what. I just want to know when we get to spend our capital on us.

2. OK. Did he say WHERE?

I'm assuming he'll use a blue state.

5. Notice that he's going to "spend" it. Not "invest" it like he should.

You're not supposed to spend capital.

I wonder what capital he's talking about. Probably just our children.
