HAHA! Need sound to go with this Bush quote

[flavio]

"There's a saying in Tennessee...There's a saying in Texas, maybe it's a saying in Tennessee. Fool me once, Shame on...(5 second pause)...Shame on you....(pause)...You can't get fooled again." --George W. Bush to Nashville, Tennessee audience, Sept. 17, 2002, MSNBC-TV --Politex, Sept. 17, 2002


Just heard this on the radio and it sounded funny as hell. I can't find a sound clip for it yet though.

The man should REALLY stick to a script.

That's funny, even for a Bush supporter like myself.

I heard a funnier Algore comment on the radio this morning: "If I was governor of Florida...." This was a partial actual quote from him regarding the voting problems during the Democrat primary.

The whole tactic of pointing out something silly or mistaken and therefore he's an idiot is getting old.. Any public speaker who speaks as much as a President is going to say stupid things a lot.. the guy probably talks all day.. and of course everyone is listening to every single thing he says. I'm sure you say stupid things all the time, its just nobody gives a rats ass what you think..

The dems can't get anything to stick to GWB, so they hope if they say he's stupid enough people will believe it..

Bush was quoting a cliche. Most people talk about topics they know about . . . except ATOT plenty of people here talk about things without a hint of accurate information.

Few people are great orators. Bush is extremely poor. Hence, my statement he should stick to the script. Bush is not an idiot or a moron but doesn't know very much about the myriad of topics people throw at him. If his tactic is going to be cliche somebody needs to write a bunch down for him so he doesn't LOOK like an idiot. A better answer would be to acknowledge his gaps in knowledge while focusing on topics he's sufficiently commanded.

Pick your poison and stop being a hypocrite. When Gore misspoke it exemplified exaggeration, if not lies, as opposed to the fact he's a policy wonk that talks to GD much. When Clinton misspoke . . . nah, Clinton was proably lying. But at least he sounded good.

Bush wants to be folksy so he should say something like "that dog won't hunt" or "if you can't run with the big dog stay on the porch". He should know himself well enough to avoid Lincoln . . .

You can fool some of the people all the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all the time.

. . . unless someone writes it down for him . . .

The probability that we may fail in the struggle ought not to deter us from the support of a cause we believe to be just.

The flipside being . . .

We must not promise what we ought not, lest we be called on to perform what we cannot.

Along with . . .

Nothing valuable can be lost by taking time.

The problem is no one wants to entertain the notion that regime change in Iraq MAY be worse than Saddam. Germany's Kaiser Wilhelm II was a POS but look what followed.

Well, I didn't say therefore he's an idiot. His quote just sounded extremely funny and unless you have no sense of humor you would laugh too if you heard it.
