daily dose of w

I was having a little problem with my quote database this AM, and in the fixing discovered that W doesn't take his own advice! Compare 2000:

We don't believe in planners and deciders making the decisions on behalf of Americans.

George W. Bush
6 Sep 2000
From a speech delivered in Scranton, Pennsylvania.

to 2006:

I hear the voices and I read the front page, and I know the speculation. But, I'm the decider, and I decide what is best and what's best is for Don Rumsfeld to remain as the secretary of defense.

George W Bush
