Without political opinions -- Bushisms

Lately, I have kept trying to remember the wording of two of my favorite recent Bushisms, but I am unable to quote him exactly. Obviously I am having serious senior moments here. I have therefore decided to put them here so I can always find them.

The first was said in a speech in Washington on terrorism and people who are trying to harm the United States:

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."—Washington, D.C., Aug. 5, 2004

The second was from a speech that made reference to the evils of spiraling malpractice insurance:

"Too many good docs are getting out of the business. Too many OB/GYN's aren't able to practice their love with women all across the country."—Sept. 6, 2004, Poplar Bluff, Mo.

We all know what he wanted to say, and none of us would decry his sentiments, but his adlibs are frequently hilarious, and must make his speech writer cringe.
