PAYGO is an official acronym
..for "Pay as you go". Although the "go" is not abbreviated.

There were many Bushisms last night, but this was not one of them.

3. Too bad Bush sounded like an idiot
just to save 2 syllables.

4. You're right, but it was a bad choice.
It sounded to me he wasn't sure if he knew what he was talking about.

5. "Pay as you go" sounds reasonable, and may be why Bush said "paygo"

7. You are right
But most people don't know that. It was a bad choice for someone who is known for talking like a "regular person".
