Bush changes his mind sometimes, too. I like that in a president. Except with Bush it’s “I promise to do this” and then he does something else. Or he makes something up.
Two months into the war, on May 29, 2003, Mr. Bush said weapons of mass destruction had been found. […] On Sept. 9, 2004, in Pennsylvania, Mr. Bush said: “I recognize we didn’t find the stockpiles [of weapons] we all thought were there.”
When Bush flip-flops, it’s on things he said are facts. Reality flips and Bush flops. Flat on his face. Bush really isn’t a flip flopper. He’s just a flopper.
Because I don’t know the secret handshake, Mike sent along this link with a brief explanation of how, in the middle of the closing statement, Bush is suddenly talking about a frickin’ “mighty mountain.” Yep: kowtowing to the base.
As a side note, does anyone really hear a couple of bible words in a debate and squeal with excitement? Boy, I am out of touch with Bush’s base. You’ll have to pardon me if I think it’s nutty that a secret bible quote erases 3 or four instances of Bush looking out into space, lost in nonthought.
"We've done a lot of hard work together over the last three and a half years. We've been challenged, and we've risen to those challenges. We've climbed the mighty mountain. I see the valley below, and it's a valley of peace." --President Bush
The upper peninsula, please. When you're in the 3rd grade you just think that's part of canada (might as well be the arctic circle fromwhat I hear from former residents.
A friend of mine was originally from Santa Cruz. She came out here with her boyfriend who got a job in the area, and she hated the winters. She never learned to ski, didn't like skating, and was pretty much miserable throughout winter.
Her boyfriend finally got a new teaching position...in Minnesota. I told her if she didn't like NE, she was going to HATE Minnesota and at least here, we don't have to plug in our cars!
