Sounds like he’s drinking again, huh?
* “The best thing about my family is my wife. She is a great first lady. I know that sounds not very objective, but that’s how I feel. And she’s also patient. Putting up with me requires a lot of patience.”
* “There are jobs Americans aren’t doing. … If you’ve got a chicken factory, a chicken-plucking factory, or whatever you call them, you know what I’m talking about.”
* “There are some similarities, of course” between Iraq and Vietnam. “Death is terrible.”
* “I’ve been in politics long enough to know that polls just go poof at times.”
* As he has before, Bush told the story about how his first presidential decision was to pick a rug for the Oval Office, a task he quickly cast to his wife. He told her to make sure the rug reflected optimism “because you can’t make decisions unless you’re optimistic that the decisions you make will lead to a better tomorrow.”
Later, when he talked about his hope for succeeding in Iraq, Bush said, “Remember the rug?”
If you’ve got a chicken factory, a chicken-plucking
factory, or whatever you call them, you know what
I’m talking about.”
And those of us who don’t have a chicken-plucking
factory don’t know what he’s talking about.
P.S. — He doesn’t have a chicken-plucking factory.
