Bush is on the local news (Pittsburgh) ...
for speaking to the flood ravaged community of Millvale, a struggling blue collar section of the city. He thanked them for "rising up" and said something about understanding how they would wonder if they could make it through the devastation. Was he still talking about flooding from Ivan? They're probably more concerned about the devastation caused by hurricane George. Immediately following that clip, KDKA (a CBS affiliate) reported another local soldier's death.

4. Uh-oh... there's that sneaky "Xtian-code" sneak-speak again.
"Rising up." It's a way he can pander directly to the fundie contingent under the radar, and few of those not in that particular look even notice. Watch for it. And DON'T be fooled.
