Pretty much anything Bush says! You could fill a book with stuff like that... Actually, I believe somebody did. Some of my favorites:
"See, in my line of work you got to keep repeating things over and over and over again for the truth to sink in, to kind of catapult the propaganda." "It's in our country's interests to find those who would do harm to us and get them out of harm's way." "The truth of that matter is, if you listen carefully, Saddam would still be in power if he were the president of the United States, and the world would be a lot better off." You can't make these up! -------------------- Kiss me, I'm draconian!I belong to SPEAKERfortheLOST! Fear us!Tisiphone is my wonderful flying kitten!

"Money is the root of all evil."
I know I can be a mean person because I love to correct people by saying that the actual quote was "The love of money is the root of all evil." Well, it includes the phrase in it, but it's misleading.

i have a friend that for about three monmths was convinced that the line
" slam in the back of my dragula" (rob zombie : Dragula) was in fact "slam in the back of my pick up truck" the same person thought that "I hear you calling and its needles and pins" (alice cooper : Poison) was "I hear you calling and it's needles and chins" -------------------- I like your house... can I come in!
