President Bush has said that, in one form or another, at least fourteen times since it's first appearance on October 3, just after 9/11. I didn't make it up.
And apparently it's not true. Nobody, including the White House, can find any instance when he said anything remotely like that during the campaign.
Is it only lying if it's Democrats?? Republicans inherit a pass on "truth" I didn't hear about??
Presidents lying is bad, regardless of Party.
