I already proved that Bush said something similar BEFORE 9-11. I knew he said it during the campaign, in defense of his tax cut: as the Enlistment Coordinator for the KEYES2000 campaign, I followed the news very closely. As a result, his statement rang true when I heard the "joke".

Here is PROOF that Bush made the statement before the attack; he even reiterates in his own statement that he made this comment several times. If you even bothered to read the press conference (which was recorded verbatim), he did not appear to be "thrown" by the question at all; this was a PAT answer. Moreover, if this was such an issue (considering the budget battle prior to 9-11), why didn't the press jump on it then? I'll tell you why...these are REASONABLE exceptions and the press HAD heard it before.

If this bothers you so much, start doing your own homework and find out the truth on yourself instead of accepting someone else's report on another person's article as gospel. If you're so concerned about the truth, DIG FOR IT.

I have to "prove" nothing. I submit that, like all politicians, GWB is a liar. To disprove my assertion all you have to do is produce ONE credible source, or one record, showing that he in fact said what he claims, repeatedly, that he said, in Chicago during the campaign. Either he said it there or he's a liar.

Maybe he heard Al Gore say it:
