Not sure if you caught Bush on Face the Nation yesterday. If not, it’s worth reading the transcript. If you don’t have time to read pages and pages of Bush lying to Mr. Schieffer, check out some of my favorite questions and answers:

SCHIEFFER: Well, do you think that it may be possible that there will be a large number of American troops there when your successor, whoever that is, takes office in 2009?

PRESIDENT BUSH: I–I can’t–I–I really don’t want to make that prediction. It would–it–it–it–I–I am going to make my decisions for the next three years based upon what our commanders recommend. I do want to assure the American people, one, I would like to get troops home, and secondly–but I don’t want to get them home without winning, and the definition of winning is a country that can govern itself, sustain itself, and defend itself, and a country which will not become a safe haven for the terrorists.

SCHIEFFER: Everywhere I go, I find people who don’t know what it means. Seniors are going to the drug store. They don’t know what their plan is. They’re all mixed up. Everybody is just having a real problem of getting their drugs. Do you think that’s because of mismanagement, or is this law just so complicated that it can’t be administered?

PRESIDENT BUSH: I think–in all due respect, I think everybody having problems getting their drugs is not exactly what’s taking place. Millions have signed up to a new, reformed Medicare. Let’s take a step back for a second…

It’s a good deal for seniors. When it all settles out, seniors are going to realize that this Congress and this president have worked to modernize Medicare to make work better for them.
**Please see Bush’s description last week of the plan which works better for seniors…***

SCHIEFFER: Has the presidency changed you, Mr. President?

PRESIDENT BUSH: I hope not. Well, I guess that’s not the right thing to say.
