And once again, you are being dishonest about the context. Bush was talking about retraining programs for textile workers and factory assembliers, but you want to keep pretending that he was talking about your sacred cow of high-tech IT jobs.
Once again, there are many, many well-trained and experienced IT workers who can't find jobs now. How is giving someone with no prior IT experience $3,000 for a couple of community-college classes going to help them get an IT job in that kind of economy. Hint - it isn't. And the types of jobs they would be qualified for are the ones being most heavily outsourced to other countries.

Show me data that supports your claim. Show me where the American middle class has physically shrunk in size.
