GWB's slip of the tongue (Page 1 of 2)

Here's some I came across today, in fact:

""Now, we talked to Joan Hanover.  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."

(George W. Bush, Alexandria, Va., Feb. 12, 2003).

"God loves you, and I love you.  And you can count on both of us as a powerful message that people who wonder about their future can hear."

(George W. Bush, Los Angeles, Calif., March 3, 2004).

"You're free. And freedom is beautiful.  And, you know, it'll take time to restore chaos and order - order out of chaos.  But we will."

(George W. Bush, Washington, D.C., April 13, 2003).

Go here for a rolicking good time at Bush's expense! :
