NOW Bush* receives messages from God through RAINBOWS. LOL!

[LittleApple81]

partial transcript of his "press opportunity" with the Romanian prime minister:
AND WE SHOULD NOT WORRY. He is going to win.<sarcasm off>

snip...

Q Thank you, sir. Question for President Bush. Sir, in both United States and Romania, you have elections this autumn. It might be four possibilities, either you win and Mr. Nastase is winning, either you both lose, either one of you is winning, the other one is losing.

PRESIDENT BUSH: Right.

Q Sir, which one of these four possibilities represents the biggest disadvantage for Romania? (Laughter.)

PRESIDENT BUSH: Well, let me answer you this way: I am going to win. And the Prime Minister told me he is going to win. And, therefore, the other three possibilities you've outlined are not going to happen.

The interesting thing is, is that here we are talking about elections in Romania. That's what I was thinking during this discussion, that we -- a person standing for election in Romania and the United States President are now talking about what it means to campaign, a conversation which would not have been taking place 20 years ago.

You know, I'll never forget my trip to Bucharest at the rainbow speech. It was one of the most moving experiences of my Presidency. And the reason why was that the rainbow, itself, that appeared in the midst of a rainstorm in front of 200-plus-thousand people ended right behind -- from my vision, ended right behind the place where the tyrant, Ceausescu, gave his last speech. It was -- it was a very powerful message. It moved me deeply during the moment.

And it still moves me to think that there was a powerful message being delivered by nature, to the point where I remember turning back to the people of Romania and said, "God is smiling on Bucharest." And I meant that.

And part of my beliefs, Mr. Prime Minister, is that -- that one of the great universal values of the world is that men and women deserve to be free. And here we are talking about an election voted on, in your country and mine, by free people.

Thank you for coming.
