Need info from a recent Bush speech
Anybody have a link to the speech where idiot-boy said something like "March to war, march to war that's all one network talked about before we went to Iraq was March to war."

In other words, the media sent us to war.

I need it because this is the basis for the latest approach from the CONS. Now that the evils are actually being reported by the press, Hannity and Rush have issued instructions to the masses blame the media for "bias." Suddenly the CONS are now poor hapless victims of the media.

I need the quote from that speech to identify the origins of this current wave of attempted brainwashing.

1. Here's a DU article about it...
http://www.democraticunderground.com/articles/03/08/06_march.html

From a July 30th speech (official WH transcript):

<snip>
THE PRESIDENT: "Yes. No, to answer the last part of your question. First of all, let me - just a quick history, recent history. The stock market started to decline in March of 2000. Then the first quarter of 2001 was a recession. And then we got attacked in 9/11. And then corporate scandals started to bubble up to the surface, which created a - a lack of confidence in the system. And then we had the drumbeat to war. Remember on our TV screens - I'm not suggesting which network did this - but it said, 'March to War,' every day from last summer until the spring - 'March to War, March to War.' That's not a very conducive environment for people to take risk, when they hear, 'March to War' all the time."
