Dose anyone remember this bush quote:
GOV. GEORGE W. BUSH (R-TX), PRESIDENT-ELECT: I told all four that there were going to be some times where we don't agree with each other. But that's OK. If this were a dictatorship, it'd be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I'm the dictator.

Newsday
Transition of Power: President-Elect Bush Meets With Congressional Leaders on Capitol Hill
Aired December 18, 2000 - 12:00 p.m. ET CNN
http://www.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0012/18/nd.01.html

Why does nobody bring this up now?
Along with many other statments that have been made that would show the dark side of the shrub!

2. I heard it on Air America just yesterday...
could it have been a gag? I don't remember if B made that famous comment on tape or not. It sure reflects how he really thinks tho. Like in Woodward's book, when he says "Thass the interestin thing about bein president. Maybe somebody needs to explain to me why they say something, but I don't feel like I owe anybody an explanation."

Brrr. Both quotes still give me chills when I think of the kind of man they reveal.

3. That comment uttered by Bush was no gag and I have posted
it before as has many people, it is out there, the media I guess do not believe it is exactly a helpful thing for Bush to have uttered if he is to win this election as a so called war time president..
