Bush Finally Admits It

I guess one can only hide from reality for so long.

President George W. Bush publicly acknowledged for the first time Friday that the U.S. economy is in a recession and worried aloud that Detroit's Big Three automakers may not all survive their mounting troubles.

Four days after the government made the long-suspected existence of a recession official, Bush used the word himself.

"Our economy is in a recession," Bush said flatly, speaking to reporters on the South Lawn only hours after the release of a government report showing the biggest month of job losses in 34 years. "This is in large part because of severe problems in our housing, credit and financial markets, which have resulted in significant job losses."

1. "My administration is committed to ensuring that our economy succeeds."
Great Quote W I am surprised he didn't say "but our fundamentals of the economy are strong"

The Bush criminals come into office talking "recession" and now they leave office talking "recession."

5. Never have and never will.
I've never seen such a loser weasel in my life as George W. Bush.

6. And when he said this, it sounded like he could NOT have cared less! I heard him, he was totally
detached from the words he was spewing. Typical of george, except when he is talking about the death and destruction he causes, that is. :evilfrown:
