GW refers to US as "my nation".... |
|
Have other presidents referred to the United States as "my nation" the way George does? I just don't recall it....maybe I am wrong....or maybe I just find it particularly disgusting coming from his mouth.

Anyone with eyes can see he's not working for the best interests of the US. Lord only knows what country he really IS working for ...

5. He says "my government" too. |

No, fool, it's NOT your government. It may be your administration, but it's OUR government.

7. I called the WH early on about that phrase -- |

I reached a very nice woman, a career civil servant I'm sure, and told her we fought a revolution over that phrase. That's England: it's Her Majesty's government. Here, it's ours. She seemed to think I had a point, and took note of it, as they do. I like to think that after that Bush, at least, used the term less!
