We're not the simpletons you take us for.
Reading this thread...your post is ironic.
You don't see that?
Who's "we?" The President doesn't take the thinking American public as 'simpletons'......and that means us......though perhaps, not you.
It's awfully simple-minded to think that President Bush spoke factually about the reason for 9/11 in order to 'distract' from the budget, or anything else for that matter.
Perhaps you need to deepen your thought processes a bit, junkey.... your 'blind' need to criticize anything and everything the President says and does is startlingly shallow.....
