To take on the job of president of the United States, a person should be smart, energetic, flexible, and honest, among other things.

Smart: "You teach a child to read, and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test."

Energetic: Bush spent 42% of his first year in office on vacation.

Flexible: "You're either with us or against us."

Honest: "When Bush was asked about [the Environmental Protection Agency's report] last week, he dismissively remarked: 'I read the report put out by the bureaucracy.' ...White House press secretary Ari Fleischer fessed up: President Bush didn't actually read that 268-page Environmental Protection Agency report on climate change, even if he said he did. Fleischer was asked Monday at his daily White House briefing about Bush's comments that he'd read the report. "Whenever presidents say they read it, you can read that to be he was briefed," Fleischer said, producing laughter. --AP, June 10, 2002
