More George Bush Quotes

I have a responsibility to perform on what I told the people 3 years ago that I would do.

I want a temporary program, and I want to live within the budget agreement so we do not increase interest rates on everybody.

I want to sign an unemployment benefits package, and I want it to be one that does not bust the budget agreement.

When I compare that to the fortunes of others, why, we've got a lot to be grateful for.
