Some of the better ones:

"Redefining the role of the United States from enablers to keep the peace to enablers to keep the peace from peacekeepers is going to be an assignment."
?Interview with the New York Times, Jan. 14, 2001


"The California crunch really is the result of not enough power-generating plants and then not enough power to power the power of generating plants."
?Interview with the New York Times, Jan. 14, 2001


"I want it to be said that the Bush administration was a results-oriented administration, because I believe the results of focusing our attention and energy on teaching children to read and having an education system that's responsive to the child and to the parents, as opposed to mired in a system that refuses to change, will make America what we want it to be?a literate country and a hopefuller country."
?Washington, D.C., Jan. 11, 2001

Mugs, Bill O'Reilly already did apologize for that.

Thanks, I don't usually watch his show anymore. :) I have slightly more respect for him now though.

EDIT: Oh and tellest1 you had my hopes up. I actually thought bush said that(cause that would have been awesome), but since it was from salon i know its probably made up.

I think you guys are stuck on the wrong verb in that quote... i'ts not the apologizing that's outrageous, it's the fact that he promised never to trust the Bush administration again.
