Looking for a Bush quote from the campaign
It was a long rambling explaination of, I believe, the issue of why the he was supporting getting rid of overtime pay? It was the most incoherent thing I've ever heard him say (and that's saying alot!). Does anyone here remember it? I'd love to make it my sig line.

5. I think many of those famous sound bites
were extemporaneous. The Tribal Sovereignty clip is hilarious and obviously spontaneous.

7. Found it in one of my Email folders! Enjoy as I just have:
"Because the -- all which is on the table begins to address the big cost
drivers. For example, how benefits are calculate, for example, is on the table; whether or not benefits rise based upon wage increases or price increases. There's a series of parts of the formula that are being considered. And when you couple that, those different cost drivers, affecting those -- changing those with personal accounts, the idea is to get what has been promised more likely to be -- or closer delivered to what has been promised.

Does that make any sense to you? It's kind of muddled. Look, there's a series of things that cause the -- like, for example, benefits are calculated based upon the increase of wages, as opposed to the increase of prices. Some have suggested that we calculate -- the benefits will rise based upon inflation, as opposed to wage increases. There is a reform that would help solve the red if that were put into effect. In other words, how fast benefits grow, how fast the promised benefits grow, if those -- if that growth is affected, it will help on the red."
