The media is truly insane but evidently the president himself said, that wasn't dignified, so I'll change it to.....I have to leave.
The whole thing curls my hair.
I did watch the presser, and IMO, it was, um, well, cute, for lack of a better descriptor. He did think better of it and changed it to I have to leave and one other verb, I think. What was wrong with it? Why, Bush said it, of course. :)
