For the first time during his three years in office, President George W. Bush spoke the truth.
"...Thursday's grapple with grammar came during the White House signing ceremony for a defense appropriation bill. The money is crucial, President Bush said, to make sure the nation spends what's needed on military pay, equipment and benefits.
Why?
"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."
Unfortunately, White House spokesman Scott McClellan couldn't hold onto the attempt at a new indoor record for the Bush Administration, so he later lied to reporters by saying:
"The American people know this president speaks with clarity and conviction, and the terrorists know by his actions he means it."
Darn. I knew it couldn't last.
