Updated list of Bushisms for September :
(Btw, I invite people to parse the following Bushism :
"And a challenger is somebody who generally comes from the pack and wins, if you're going to win. And that's where I'm coming from.")
What in the world does that mean?????
Here goes the complete list (and this is only for Sept 2000, mind you!) :
"The best way to relieve families from time is to let them keep some of their own money."-Westminster, Calif., Sept. 13, 2000

"Listen, Al Gore is a very tough opponent. He is the incumbent. He represents the incumbency. And a challenger is somebody who generally comes from the pack and wins, if you're going to win. And that's where I'm coming from."-Detroit, Sept. 7, 2000 (Thanks to Michael Butler, Houston, Texas.)
