The latest version of the Progress Report from the disreputable Center for American Progress includes a bunch of phony quotes from President Bush, which CAP bills as a “translated” version of his priorities in his budget:
BUSH:
‘TOO
MANY
POOR
KIDS
GO
TO
COLLEGE’…BUSH:
‘OIL
COMPANIES
AREN’T
MAKING
ENOUGH
MONEY’…BUSH:
‘LEAVING
NO
CHILD
BEHIND
ISN’T
WORTH
THE
COST’…BUSH:
‘NOT
ENOUGH
PEOPLE
ARE
ENTERING
OUR
COUNTRY
UNDETECTED’…BUSH:
‘VETERANS
SHOULD
PAY
MORE
FOR
HEALTH
CARE’…BUSH:
‘TRUST
ME
—
TERRORISTS
WILL
NEVER
TRY
TO
HIDE
EXPLOSIVES
IN
AIRLINE
CARGO’…BUSH:
‘I
STILL
WANT
TO
PRIVATIZE
SOCIAL
SECURITY’…BUSH:
‘DRINKING
CLEAN
WATER IS
A
PRIVILEGE’…BUSH:
‘MY
HIGHEST
PRIORITY:
TAX
CUTS
FOR
THE
WEALTHIEST’…
Making up stuff and putting it in bold quotes is just a nasty cheap shot. I wouldn’t be surprised if lefty CAP supporters end up thinking these are real quotations.
