Bush backs away from "Sacrifice"
Edited on Wed Jan-17-07 05:58 PM by ck4829
Bush recently called for Americans to 'sacrifice' for this war.

We then ran with it saying "Hey, yeah! How about the Rich and the Corporations pay more taxes too? That will be their sacrifice for this war."

Then Bush said "Sacrifice" ACTUALLY means seeing "terrible image of violence on TV every night."

5. Thank you! I thought about using clips from the actual interview
but then decided on just quoting him. In the Video forum, I link to the various quotes.

Most of my other videos have sound... but not all.

8. I swear I heard Bush say in his speech that
"the enemy" was going to be flooding us with pictures of violence, in his speech but I can't find that statement in any transcript. Was I imagining it or did someone else hear that?
