On this date 30 years ago...
Richard Nixon resigns.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nixon said "I am not a crook".
To the world these are his most remembered words.
Bush's most remembered words will probably be "Bring it On !".

Probably the best gaff from a president yet.

saying he feels your pain, JFK saying he was a Berliner.

LOL! You got it verbatim. I heard it once on the news (forgot
exactly how it went.. maybe my trip to Amsterdam injured the
memory just a tad .. ;)
I thought it was something like:
"They're out to hurt our country and our people...Well! So are we!"
Regardless - it's hilarious! My favorite Bushizm by far.

"We'll let our friends be the peace-keepers and the great
country called America will be the pace-makers"
"First, let me make it very clear, poor people aren't
necessarily killers. Just because you happen to be not rich
doesn't mean you're willing to kill."
"Now, we talked to Joan. She and her husband, George, were
visiting with us. They are near retirement—retiring—in the
process of retiring, meaning they're very smart, active,
capable people who are retirement age and are retiring"
"Let me tell you my thoughts about tax relief. When your
economy is kind of ooching along, it's important to let
people have more of their own money"
"There's an old saying in Tennessee —I know it's in Texas,
probably in Tennessee—that says, fool me once, shame on—shame
on you. Fool me—you can't get fooled again”
"If you don't have any ambitions, the minimum-wage job isn't
going to get you to where you want to get, for example. In
other words, what is your ambitions? And oh, by the way, if
that is your ambition, here's what it's going to take to
achieve it.”
"There may be some tough times here in America. But this
country has gone through tough times before, and we're
going to do it again."
"I promise you I will listen to what has been said here,
even though I wasn't here."
"The trial lawyers are very politically powerful. … But
here in Texas we took them on and got some good
medical—medical malpractice."
"I firmly believe the death tax is good for people from all
walks of life all throughout our society."
"There was no malfeance involved. This was an honest
disagreement about accounting procedures. ... There was no
malfeance, no attempt to hide anything."
"Over 75 percent of white Americans own their home, and
less than 50 percent of Hispanos and African Americans don't
own their home. And that's a gap, that's a homeownership gap.
And we've got to do something about it."
"Do you have blacks, too?" To Brazilian President Fernando
Cardoso, Washington, D.C
"This is a nation that loves our freedom, loves our country"
"The public education system in America is one of the most
important foundations of our democracy. After all, it is
where children from all over America learn to be responsible
citizens, and learn to have the skills necessary to take
advantage of our fantastic opportunistic society."
"It would be a mistake for the United States Senate to allow
any kind of human cloning to come out of that chamber."
"You'll hear people say it's racist to test. Folks, it's
racist not to test. Because guess who gets shuffled through
the system oftentimes? Children whose parents don't speak
English as a first language, inner-city kids. It's so much
easier to quit on somebody than to remediate."
"For every fatal shooting, there were roughly three
non-fatal shootings. And, folks, this is unacceptable in
America. It's just unacceptable. And we're going to do
something about it."
"The California crunch really is the result of not enough
power-generating plants and then not enough power to power
the power of generating plants"
"They want the federal government controlling Social Security
like it's some kind of federal program."
"If I'm the president, we're going to have emergency-room
care, we're going to have gag orders."
"I mean, there needs to be a wholesale effort against
racial profiling, which is illiterate children."
"One of the common denominators I have found is that
expectations rise above that which is expected."
"It is clear our nation is reliant upon big foreign oil.
More and more of our imports come from overseas."
"States should have the right to enact reasonable laws

Hey Ho!!
Welcome back!
Bush has produced more idiotic quotes then any other prez, to my
knowledge. It's scarey to think about ... but when you do it's almost like
Al Qaeda saw the opportunity of the U.S. having a complete idiot sitting
in power when they struck. They're timing couldn't have been better. They
were obviously paying close attention to GW. I'd be surprised if they
haven't indirectly contributed to his reelection fund.
I'll be clean of cigarettes for 3 full weeks tomorrow night at 10:00 PM.

Ah ... the smokes.
First, I was smoking approx. 1/2 pack ( 12 to 15 ) per day.
I'm doing the patch. I used the 14 mg for 2 weeks then dropped myself down
to 7 mg. One more week on 7 mg then done-diddily-done.
I just finished off a pack at 10:00 one evening and went grocery shopping
with my kids the next morning. Instead of butts, I bought a pack of
patches instead.
A year ago last January I went cold turkey for 6 weeks. Considering the
way things were going at work and home I'm surprised I lasted that long.
It got easier as far as the cravings went, but they were a ***** at first.
I had a buddy at work quit along with me, so it was basicly staying
'clean' on my own in the mornings and evenings. Stress ended up doing me
in and convinced me to start up again.
Almost 4 years ago I had quit for 6 months. Used the patches for 6 weeks
at the beginning. That was a breeze. I started back up thinking I could
have 'just one'. I kicked myself in the ***** for that stupidity. Dropping
down a level or finishing up with the patch will cause a days worth of
discomfort then it's done.
Nicotine takes about 2 or 3 days to get out of your system. But there's a
ton of other chemicals they put in cigarettes to keep you coming back too.
That's why I went back to the patch this time. Someone here mentioned
alt.support.stop-smoking as a decent group for quitting ... and it is.
It's great.
HTH!

Nicotine might be good for you. Pharmacologists have noted that
nicotine enhances memory and attention, and helps those with
Parkinson's, schizophrenia, and depression. They are trying to come up
with nicotine-like drugs, since nicotine has few side effects.
But smoking is bad. One can eat three quarters of a cigarette a day,

I saw on the news recently a mother was charged with neglect (or

Actually Nicorette (the brand name) is very expensive so I use the
cheaper version from Walgreens or Walmart at a savings of $20 and since
it is a drug there is no outrageous taxes on it like there is on cigs.
Great with your morning coffee! :)

Yeah, smoking is bad for the lungs and cardiovascular system. Second
hand smoke similarly.

Smarty. The cost around here is what scares me off.

I usually ain't depressed. But stress from work triggered mild
depression, so I got on tobacco.

Nicotine Patch May Aid Memory
LOS ANGELES TIMES
December 30, 2003
For many years, doctors have tried to harness the memory-enhancing
powers of nicotine without exposing people to the carcinogenic
chemicals in cigarette smoke. A nicotine patch may be the answer.
Several studies have shown that nicotine can improve attentiveness
among patients with attention deficit disorders, schizophrenia,
Parkinson's disease and mild to moderate Alzheimer's. Now, a small
study from Duke University researchers suggests that low-dose nicotine
patches might relieve the mildest form of memory loss, a common
condition called age-associated memory impairment - often referred to
as "senior moments."
The study of 11 nonsmoking patients ages 60 to 90 found that four
weeks of wearing a nicotine patch halved the time it took them to make
decisions on a standardized memory test. They scored better on
standard measures of mental focus and attentiveness, while reporting
improved memory.
The low-dose nicotine patch worked without such side effects as
increased heart rate, blood pressure and weight loss, all of which are
associated with higher doses. One participant dropped out because of
nausea.
Nicotine, the study demonstrated, can improve memory and attention
even at the earliest stages of memory loss, said co-author Edward D.
Levin, a behavioral pharmacologist. It might even slow mental decline.
But people having difficulty recalling simple facts, such as names or
phone numbers, shouldn't rush out to buy the patch, experts say.
Nicotine is only FDA-approved for smoking cessation, and the long-term
safety of nicotine patches hasn't been proven in large studies.
Levin also cautioned against smoking because cigarettes' health risks
far outweigh nicotine's benefits.
The findings, published in an online edition of the journal
Psychopharmacology and awaiting publication in the printed version,
suggest that nicotine-like drugs being developed by several
pharmaceutical companies might provide a similar memory-boosting
benefit.

I hope the ambitious realise that they are more likely to

If we don't succeed we run the risk of failure.
The senator (John McCain) has to understand if he's going

I am mindful of not only preserving executive power for

I believe we are on an irreversible trend toward more freedom

We cannot let terrorists and rogue nations hold this nation

Quite frankly, teachers are the only profession that teach

One word sums up probably the responsibility of any Governor,

Well, I think if you say you're going to do something and

I have made good judgment in the past, I have made good

It just crossed this mind of mine, that GW Bush is an evil experiment on
