Bushism of the Day
Jacob WeisbergPosted Friday, May 18, 2001, at 5:35 PM ET

"Thirdly, the explorationists are willing to only move equipment during the winter, which means they'll be on ice roads, and remove the equipment as the ice begins to melt, so that the fragile tundra is protected."--Conestoga, Pa., May 18, 2001

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.)
