"I will never relent in defending America whatever it takes," Bush said...
...to roars of approval."

"Over the next four years I will continue to build alliances and work with our friends in the cause of security and peace," he said. "But I will never turn over America's national security decisions to leaders of other countries."

Bush also sought to reassure anxious voters in Michigan and Ohio that his policies, mostly revolving around tax cuts, will turn around the two states' lagging economies. Unemployment rates in both are higher than the national average.

Michigan's unemployment rate dropped slightly in June to 6.5 percent but the state continued to lose manufacturing jobs. "We've got a plan in place," Bush said. "The economy's improving. It's getting better. Factory orders are on the rise. Manufacturing jobs are coming back. The unemployment rate has fallen a full percent. And we're not going to rest until everybody who wants to work can find a job."

2. Sure.............
Dumbya, anything you say. "We've got a plan in place".... where is it? Just around the corner? Other than tax cuts for the rich, this administration has no plan whatsoever.

3. he was sanguine about the economy in December

DIANE SAWYER: What worries you most about the economy? The deficit? campaigning against them and —

PRESIDENT BUSH: Yeah, well, you got to understand, we're at war and I'm going to spend what is needed to win the war. And we've got to protect the homeland. We'll spend what's needed to protect the homeland.... We've got a plan to cut it in half over the next five years. It means Congress is going to have to tow the line when it comes to spending. We can't — they can't, particularly in campaign years, try to be all things to all people and overspend. But I think we're making good progress. I'm satisfied with the progress we've made ...

4. If anybody goes to hell, it will be Bu$h.
Edited on Thu Aug-05-04 08:49 PM by DemoTex
I'm thinking about cleaning up my act so that I won't be his roommate.

Edit: Bingo! Great retort to the right-wing fundies! Hep save me! Hep! I don't want to be Bu$h's bay-tch in satan's jail! Watch 'em squirm. I've got a brother-in-law who is a fundy preacherman. Can't wait to work this line on him.
