Somebody went and told Dumbya about the conomy, and now he thinks he better fix it.
BILLINGS, Mont. (Reuters) - President
George W. Bush (news - web sites) said on
Monday the U.S. economy was slowing and
``we better do something about it'' as he
prepared to give a major speech on Tuesday
about his plans, including tax cuts, to revive
growth.
White House spokesman Ari Fleischer (news - web sites) told reporters
that Bush believed the United States was in an ``economic downturn,'' a
phrase the Republican president declined to echo as he voiced his worries
about tepid growth.
``I'm concerned about our economy,'' Bush said at the start of a two-day
trip to sell his $1.6 trillion tax cut proposal in visits to Missouri, Montana
and Michigan. ``I believe the economy has slowed down and we better do
something about it.''
"To the untrained eye, this looks like a surly swipe at Washington-based critics of Bush's tax proposal. But close readers of this column will quickly grasp that it is really a heavily camouflaged admission of error."
He's so busy trying to keep his lies in order that he's tripping all over his feet!

Hi Femme! Only a week? I'd like to be pampered longer than that. Today [and today only ] California sounds great!
As soon as I win the lotto you're on! It would be fun!
Just don't hold your breath waiting, I have very bad luck!

We've found that in cases of severe battleaxe fatique a minimum of three weeks is required before any appreciable effect can be documented.

So that's fatigue not fatique ? I thought maybe it was another case of the "olde english" and I wasn't getting it. Again.

KRS, It doesn't frighten me. Never did. Why should it? No one here gets everything all the time. Not even you.
