President "Pants On Fire"
Liar Bush. Not exaggeration, out and out lies.
What he said before, video here, text here:
What he said before, video here, text here:
Q But don't you believe that the threat that bin Laden posed won't truly be eliminated until he is found either dead or alive?But last night, when Senator Kerry called him on it, Bush pulled an I know you are but what am I?:
THE PRESIDENT: Well, as I say, we haven't heard much from him. And I wouldn't necessarily say he's at the center of any command structure. And, again, I don't know where he is. I -- I'll repeat what I said. I truly am not that concerned about him.
KERRY: ... Six months after he said Osama bin Laden must be caught dead or alive, this president was asked, "Where is Osama bin Laden? " He said, "I don't know. I don't really think about him very much. I'm not that concerned. "
We need a president who stays deadly focused on the real war on terror.
SCHIEFFER: Mr. President?
BUSH: Gosh, I just don't think I ever said I'm not worried about Osama bin Laden. It's kind of one of those exaggerations.
Of course we're worried about Osama bin Laden. We're on the hunt after Osama bin Laden. We're using every asset at our disposal to get Osama bin Laden.
