<<...In the long run, Mr. President, words matter. They inform us that there is a vast divide between your testament and your ideology, between your ideology and your policies, between your stated purpose and the underlying intent. They inform us that you are not the author of your own mission and that you are nothing more than a mouthpiece for the powers you serve...>> The Dubious Wisdom of George W. Bush counterpunch.org

GW impromptu press conference in Holland, then has press thrown out: The next question concerned the cost of the Iraq war. The unidentified questioner noted that the U.S. had been involved in "a lot of wars," and wondered about the impact on Americans at home. She said she had recently received a brochure seeking donations for poor people in the United States !and asked Bush: "What's the balance between the responsibility to the world and the responsibility to your own people?" Said Bush: "I think we have a responsibility to both." Reverting to what resembled a campaign stump speech, he then listed the value of small businesses in creating jobs and spoke of the United States' role in fighting HIV/AIDS in Africa and safeguarding freedom around the world. Media were then asked to leave, though the meeting, held in a window-lined room at a glorious chateau near Maastricht, went on for another half-hour. latimes.com
