Bush: "My job is to do....remind people about the war on terror"

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,206540,00.html

<snip>

My job is to do — is to do two things, one, remind people about the war on terror, and remind them that we're doing everything we can to protect them, so that they're able to go about their lives. In other words, what you don't want is, you don't want an economy to shut down because people are worried about the next terrorist attack.

It's a — you know, it's — you want the environment for — for people taking risks to be such that people say, "I understand that there's a War on Terror, but I'm still willing to take risk."

You know, taking risk in our system is how people form businesses and how jobs are created. And, so, I — I — I'm not surprised that some have said, "Well, this war is really not a war anymore."

But I know it's a war and I think about it every day of my presidency.

I think about Al Qaeda every day. I'm asking questions all the time: Are we doing everything we can to protect this country?




:crazy:

1. come on. You made that up. PLEASE say you made that up.
On second thought, it must be real. Just like sane people find it almost impossible to talk like schizophrenics, it is impossible for rational people to pretend to talk like Bush.

4. What a douchebag!
I have never hated another human being before, because I understood from a very young age that hatred only hurts the hater. (there are certainly people I dislike.)

That said, I hate that man with every fiber of my being...

13. So, "don't worry about the next terrorist attack, because it might
hurt the economy ... but worry about the next terrorist attack because my numbers are down ..."?

15. Does anyone have a copy of the Constitution where it enumerates
the powers of the presidency to include cheerleading? I seem to have misplaced mine.

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

18. I thought that reminding us about the war on terror
was the corporate media's job.

* seems to be redundant.
