Bush: "Put a little good news in your newspapers. Be a novel experience for you."

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/blog/2007/10/12/BL2007101201246_3.html?hpid=opinionsbox1

<snip>

Pool reporter Todd Gillman of the Dallas Morning News described a telling scene right after the photo op yesterday: "The transcript ends as the pool began to file out, at which point the president smilingly urged: 'Nothing like a little good news for y'all to print up. Put a little good news in your newspapers. Be a novel experience for you.'"

8. Yes, I hear the Fall Colors for Baghdad schools are creating quite the stir. . .
nothing like shades of Burnt Umber, Boiled Burgundy, and Crispy Black to rouse the old school spirit, get the blood flowing with excitement and trauma.

Plenty of good news, I guess. Just have to spin it right. . .

14. If Dubya wants good news in the newspaper, he can get it easily:
just announce that he and Cheney are resigning immediately.
