Bushism of the Day
Jacob WeisbergPosted Friday, April 20, 2001, at 1:47 PM ET

"We must have the attitude that every child in America--regardless of where they're raised or how they're born--can learn."--New Britain, Conn., April 18, 2001 (Thanks to Eric Beerbohm.)
For more, see "The Complete Bushisms."
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.)
