What are some of the funniest Bushisms?

Question

Not to go into the anti or pro Bush issue. There's just something in particular President Bush said one time, and I saw it in a "Bush-ism" list somewhere and can't find it. Can't remember what it was exactly he said.

Answer 1

"We look forward to analyzing and working with legislation that will make--it would hope--put a free press's mind at ease that you're not being denied information you shouldn't see." --G.W. Bush, Washington, D.C., April 14, 2005

"But all in all, it's been a fabulous year for Laura and me." --G. W. Bush, White House Press Release, 12.21.01

REPORTER: "You talk about the general threat toward Americans....And people ask us, what is it they're supposed to be on the lookout for?...What are Americans supposed to look for and report to the police or to the FBI?"
BUSH: "You know, if you find a person that you've never seen before getting in a crop-duster that doesn't belong to you, report it...."Press Conference, 10/11/01

It's only now becoming clear that he's not qualified to converse with world leaders, he would be the laughing stock of the world, and could even seriously mess up important relations with other countries by a slip of the tongue, or an offensive remark, or slur. It's more scary than funny, and also a little sad. I'm not a fan of Al Gore, but is Bush all the Republicans could come up with as a leader for our country? "Here, take this moron, he's good enough for you."

Trying to stop suiciders -- which we're doing a pretty good job of on occasion -- is difficult to do.

Bush, Washington, D.C., May 24, 2006

As you can possibly see, I have an injury myself -- not here at the hospital, but in combat with a cedar. I eventually won. The cedar gave me a little scratch.

Bush, after visiting with wounded veterans from the Amputee Care Center of Brooke Army Medical Center, San Antonio, Texas, Jan. 1, 2006
