Is there nothing that Bush won't try to spin? Or maybe he was serious...

What's tragic in all of this is that since it was a Bush rally/photo-op, it was staged and thus all the people there were vehemently pro-Bush. Doubtless this woman is, too. Yet despite the fact that Bush's policies are largely geared against lower-income people like this woman, she still supports him.

How the far-right Republicans have managed to dupe so many into supporting a party that clearly does not have them in their best interests is baffling!

Don't forget that both religion and the Bush administration expect demand unquestioned obedience to authority.

The sad fact is that Republicans are experts at getting people to vote against their own best interest.

The woman says, "Thankyou" twice. Was she going to make a point of her low wages and was lulled into a thankyou instead? Unbelievable!
