Bushisms

Bushism of the Day

“I’m a patient man. And when I say I’m a patient man, I mean I’m a patient man.”

“Nothing he [Saddam Hussein] has done has convinced me—I’m confident the Secretary of Defense—that he is the kind of fellow that is willing to forgo weapons of mass destruction, is willing to be a peaceful neighbor, that is—will honor the people—the Iraqi people of all stripes, will—values human life. He hasn’t convinced me, nor has he convinced my administration.”—Crawford, Texas, Aug. 21, 2002

Bush on Bushisms!“Most of you probably didn’t know that I have a new book out. Some guy put together a collection of my wit and wisdom—or, as he calls it, my accidental wit and wisdom. [ Laughter.] But I’m kind of proud that my words are already in book form.”—Radio-Television Correspondents Association dinner, Washington, D.C., March 29, 2001 (Click here for the full transcript.)
