4. GEORGE W. BUSH ANSWERS THE TOUGH QUESTIONS
Edited on Wed Apr-05-06 12:24 AM by Breeze54
GEORGE W. BUSH ANSWERS THE TOUGH QUESTIONS:
From his appearance at Kansas State – January 23rd.
Bush is at a podium. A student off camera asks a question.

Student: “Recently, $12.7 billion was cut from education and I was just wondering how that’s supposed to help our futures?”
Bush: (confused; not hearing) “Education budget was cut? Say it again. What was cut?
Student: “$12.7 billion was cut from education, and I was wondering how is that supposed to help our . . .
Bush: “At the federal level?”
Student: “Yes.”
Bush: “I don’t think . . . I don’t think we’ve actually . . . . for higher education? Student loans?”
Student: “Yes.”
Bush looks this way and that. He looks behind him looking for help.
He turns back to the podium and says with a snort:
Bush: (hesitantly) “Actually, I think what we did was reform the student loan program.”


Perhaps the President rebounded nicely but we cut if off before we saw any more.
Plus, I’m not sure if he was preparing to answer the question asked.
The President seemed a bit flummoxed.

12. So that's what they're calling it now: "reform".
Be wary of anything they want to "reform". It may only then be available in name only, no financial backup.

"Sure we have an education system in the U.S. Your momma stays home and teaches you your ABC's and if you want to do anything more complicated, too bad, unless you can afford the $500,000 for private school and college because we don't have any public schools any more."
