When asked if Heinz Kerry's "shove it" comment was appropriate, Bush said: "It's hard when your husband's running for president. It's hard to be scrutinized and to hear the criticisms, and I think that's really what the fact of the matter is in what she said."

Huh?

Boy, that's a bit reminiscent of the sentence structure of a certain Mr. Quayle... "Our government, like many governments..." ;)

WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush offered up a new entry for his catalog of "Bushisms" on Thursday, declaring that his administration will "never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people."

Bushisms can be visual as well as text-based.

Here is the whole quote as the new york times reports it...

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we," Mr. Bush said. "They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people — and neither do we."

finally he tells us what he really means...

Akip, to post a link click on the "Http://" button above the message box. A little window will pop up where you can type what you want the link to say, and then another to type the actual link.

Like this. (http://www.dayswithoutend.com)
