Full quote:


"The people expect us to confront problems without illusion. They expect us to lead with conviction and confidence, not by reading the latest poll or listening to the latest focus group."

--- George W. Bush, April 18, 2005



What is that "will of the people" thing the Republicans keep throwing out there?

The "will of the people" only matters when the polls are in their favor?
