"Who, O'Neill?" Bush quipped in amazement. "We found one, O'Neill."
I think that President Bush should speak personally to every person in the country before he runs for reelection. His self-effacement and good humor makes it absolutely impossible not to like him.
He'd win in 2004 with 80% of the vote! LOL!
This morning - I wondered if any of the presstitute "news" stations would be carrying this report - but in essence this is what it said:
The man speaking was head of one of the Small Business advocacy orgainzations - Independent Small Business group?
He said he went to this forum EXPECTING IT TO BE JUST A SHOW.
But, instead, he was very pleasantly surprised that it was much much different than what he expected. Substantive issues were discussed and real "listening" occurred on the part of the government people there. He thought it was very well worthwhile and gives him hope for the economy and the approach President Bush is taking.
But, LOL, I thought the quip about Treasury Secretary O'Neil - where the President said, "Paul, we found one" (someone who supposedly was a happy supporter of the Treasury Secretary - although that is NOT what the woman was saying - is very funny!)
And does this mean, McLynnan - that the book signing didn't pan out? Or have I missed that report?
This is a bit off-topic, but the engulfing irony does not leave me, of President Bush owning a new home only 25 miles from the scene of his predecesor's mass murder of our fellow citizens. Of all the places in Texas Bush could have settled, this one always gives me pause, and I am sure it affects a few bias-peddlers posing as reproters who stay in the same hotels now as they did when the inhabitants of Mt. Carmel were being intimidated and watched while hillary grew impatient for their demise, eventuating in their brutal incineration. And let us not forget that there were babies, some still in utero, and toddlers, killed for their parents' "crimes" by the administration that claimed to do everything for the children. This is justice, clinton-style.
I will never forget this barbarism.
