Oh, that Bush: "I'll do my best to elevate the tone here in Washington"

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

THE PRESIDENT: I want to thank the members of my Cabinet for being here. We just had a really good discussion about the year 2006. Tomorrow night I'm going to be speaking to the Congress, giving the country my State of the Union address.

I can't tell you how upbeat I am about our future, so long as we're willing to lead.



We talked about how to make sure that America continues to spread the peace and to protect ourselves.

I heard from the Secretary of Defense and Deputy Secretary of State about very positive initiatives -- not only in the Middle East, but in the Far East, as well.



We talked about how to make sure this economy of ours stays the strongest economy in the world, and that we recognize we can't just sit back and hope for the best, that we've got to lead.



And so we had a good discussion about matters such as health care and energy and education, all of which I'll address tomorrow night.



I'm looking forward to speaking to the country.



We've got a lot to be proud of.



We've got a lot of work to do.



One of the things I will do is call for Congress and the executive branch to have a good, honest dialogue, but to speak candidly with each other, but to do so in a way that brings credit to the process.



And I'll do my best to elevate the tone here in Washington, D.C. so we can work together to achieve big things for the American people.



Thank you all very much.
