"Not forgetting something" is not the same as revenge.

Perhaps you were taught to "think" in one of Clinton's "schools"? Hmmmm?

"You fucking son of a bitch. I saw what you wrote. We're not going to forget this." (Bush to writer and editor Al Hunt, 1988.)

So? Adjective is descriptive, vocabulary diverse. Sentence structure is intact and direct. Is there something wrong with this quote that I am missing?

Point taken, and I'll keep it in mind for the future. Thanks.

I did delete this, as you suggested:

Here's a nice couple of Bush comments. 1988 vs 2000. Which is the true Bush?:

"You fucking son of a bitch. I saw what you wrote. We're not going to forget this." (Bush to writer and editor Al Hunt, 1988.)

"I'm running for a reason. I'm answering this question here and the answer is, you cannot lead America to a positive tomorrow with revenge on one's mind. Revenge is so incredibly negative." (Bush to the Washington Post, 2000.)

This is also a separate post, really:

And this is not a verbal stumble. It is not conceptual, either-- the concern is that one suspects he genuinely doesn't understand how inadequate and embarrassing it is as the response of a presidential candidate to a question about issues:

"I will look at each piece of legislation when it makes it to my desk," and

"I will review that when it makes it to my desk."

So he lost his temper in '88, and sought to take a positive tack 12 years later. Hmmmm, mighty insidious......
