>You've said this before. But neither you nor anyone else can point to a bonafide example of dishonesty. You can find evidence of lots of mistakes. But not a shred to suggest dishonesty. It just isn't there.

I'm drunk, it's 1 AM, I'm not going to rattle off a number of examples... just one:

The administration told Congress that the prescription drug bill was going to cost $400 billion, when it KNEW it was going to cost closer to $600 billion and gagged the actuary who wanted to tell that to Congress.

That's just one.

Al and Ted (who I think are further west, so it's earlier for you)... how about some others? Maybe we should keep a running list so Dave can't keep asking this question.

You WILL NOT hear Bush doing this. He may make a mistake in something he says, but he DOES NOT change his message to pander to his audience.

He just did........his "unwinnable" war on terrorism did not resonate well so he changed his position today.

Rove is an effective handler but he can't cover Bush every minute.
