Hey, I didn't vote for him...


"Now there are some who would like to rewrite history; revisionist historians is what I like to call them,"

"My assessment is, is that there are people that want peace to go forward, and there are people that don't."

Fascinating.

Q: Sir, have the Israelis been justified in going after Hamas --

THE PRESIDENT: Wait for us to succeed peace. Wait for us to have two states, side by side -- is for everybody coming together to deny the killers the opportunity to destroy. And that's what they want to do. There are people in the Middle East who hate the thought of a peaceful Palestinian state. That's what they can't stand. And the objective of this government, and my objective as the President, is to move the process forward so a state is established; it will be a peaceful state, a free state, a prosperous state, so people have hope. And in the meantime, before that state is established, it is clear that the free world, those who love freedom and peace, must deal harshly with Hamas and the killers. And that's just the way it is in the Middle East.

We've all seen the movies where a secret service person yells out "gun" and everyone dog piles the President or shuffles him into some back room. I think a similar command should be used when the President feels the need for speaking to the Press "off the cuff." We need to ensure that the President doesn't speak without his teleprompeteer.


Scenario:
President walks towards the press after getting off of Marine One...reporter starts to speak...

Q: Sir, have the Israelis been justified in going after Hamas --

Man in Shades: Words!!!

President: Wait fo....(four men grab President and rush him back to Marine One which takes off).
