You know, when I was running for president, in Chicago, somebody said, would you ever have deficit spending? I said, only if we were at war, or only if we had a recession, or only if we had a national emergency. Never did I dream we’d get the trifecta.
Cam posted this MSNBC editorial which blasts Bush for the Trifecta one-liner he’s been throwing around. The author centers on the fact that Bush has been using Sept. 11 to cover for many of the administration’s failure. He also notes that no one can pinpoint when he had ever make the original remark while campaigning. Perhaps the final irony is that the Washington Post has in fact discovered the originator of the quote: Al Gore. (discussion @ mefi)
