You know whats Ironic... june 14th 2002.. I was on my way home to my Newlywed Wife and arrived on the 15th June 2002....
and here on the 14th June 2002 my Commander and Chief was Laughing and Cheering with all those people in Texas and Cutting down the progress that was being made by His Military all the While we were working our ass's off to keep this Country of his and Our Safe!!!!
Amazing he would do such a thing....
Now to set the whole Storyline Straight JOHN... here's the rest of the Story!!!!
You know, when I was one time campaigning in Chicago, a reporter said, would you ever have a deficit? And I said, I can't imagine it, but there would be one if we had a war, or a national emergency, or a recession. (Laughter.) Never did I dream we'd get the trifecta. (Laughter.) But I want you to know we're making progress on all three fronts. I'm concerned about the economic security of the American people. I know there's a lot of focus on statistics -- this number comes out or that number comes out. Here's my attitude: so long as somebody wants to work and can't find a job, we have a problem. And my focus is going to be to continue to expand the job base of this country so people can find work. (Applause.)
We made a pretty good start when we cut the taxes on the working people. And it came at exactly the right time. (Applause.) There's a school of thought in Washington that says, if you take more of the people's money the economy will benefit. I don't read the same textbook. (Laughter.) My attitude is, when times are slow, you let people have their own money. And when they keep their own money, they spend it. And when they spend their own money, they demand a goods and service. And when you demand a good and service, somebody's going to provide the good and service, which means somebody's going to be able to work. This tax cut happened at the right time, and we need to make the tax cuts permanent. (Applause.)
In order to make sure people can find jobs and can work in America, we need an energy policy. We need an energy policy that, on the one hand, encourages conservation and makes sure that we promote renewable sources of energy; an energy policy that promotes the new technologies that are coming on line. But we need an energy policy as well that encourages exploration for oil and gas in the United States of America. (Applause.)
The nay-sayers and the skeptics, you know, challenge that policy. They don't understand the technologies now available that allow us to provide domestic energy and at the same time protect our environment. But let me put it to you this way. For the sake of economic security, we need a sound energy policy. And for the sake of national security, we must become less reliant on foreign sources of energy. Some of those sources don't particularly care about America, I might add. (Applause.)
This Congress needs to give me a trade bill so I can open up markets for Texas agricultural products, for high tech products. Listen, if you're good at something -- and we're good at a lot of things when it comes to our economy -- we ought to be selling them to people around the world. This country ought to be feeding the people of the world. I need trade promotion authority from the United States Congress for the good of the job creation. (Applause.)
We're making progress on economic security. And we've got a long way to go. But I just want you to know, so long as somebody can't find work that wants to work, I'm working.
And we've got a lot to do on homeland security, as well. I want you to know what I think about the people that we're fighting. They are nothing but cold-blooded killers. There was a bombing in Karachi. Innocent people lost their lives. Most of the innocent people were Muslims. These people, these terrorists, these killers have hijacked a noble religion -- but the world is seeing what they're made out of, what they're like. They do not value individual life. And for the good of freedom and for the good of America and our allies and friends, we're going to hunt them down one by one and bring them to justice. (Applause.)
We've made some progress. The other night when I announced this Department of Homeland Security, I laid out a statistic that said we've rounded up about 2,400 of them so far. Make it 2,401.
To Read the Whole Story... instead of Cuts a blurps leaves a person with a good feeling about Our President and his Administration and the Efforts of the Military to that Date!!!! Now doesn't it???
