"Considering that you were claiming that this was just Bush restating a reporter's question, when a further review showed he answered it at length, means you don't care a whit about facts, nor about what millions of Americans are going through. Just as long as no one criticizes Bush, you don't care."

Taking pot shots at me isn't going to help your argument. Bush rephrased the reporter's question (that's what it means when someone repeats your question back to you prefaced by "In other words..."). The question had two different components to it. Bush answered one of those components.

Yet people have eagerly siezed upon Bush's answer and deliberately misconstrued the alleged context.

That's an easy tactic if your agenda is to make Bush look bad, but it hardly gets at the truth of the matter.

So what's your goal, to make Bush look bad even if you have to take his quotes out of context, or is your goal to find the truth?

Considering that you took pot shots at me on this subject, don't bitch when fire is returned.

Try reading the entire response by Bush, instead of just the first paragraph, and get back to me.
