Here's the first one:
| Quote: |
| "I promise you I will listen to what has been said here, even though I wasn't here." —Waco, Texas, Aug. 13, 2002 |
You give the title. (I suggest: The Transcendental Bush)
Here's number two:
| Quote: |
| "You teach a child to read, and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test.'' —George W. Bush, Townsend, Tenn., Feb. 21, 2001 |
How about: The Pragmatic Bush?

Those were two that stood out when I read that site. Even though I loved so many of them I don't have the time to post all of my favorites.
I'll call the first one "I fell asleep in government class" and I'll call the second one "My electronic thesarus broke and I had to wing it at sounding well educated"
But my absolute all time favorite is the one he recently made. It goes something like "our enemies make every effort to hurt our people and so do we." |
