Mr. President, what are you doing to lower the country's unemployment rate?
"Well, if you remember...a lot of people, not only lost their jobs, but they also lost their lives on September 11, 2001."
Mr. President, have our troops in Iraq found any weapons of mass destruction yet?
"On September 11, 2001, terrorists turned our own airplanes into weapons of mass destruction."
Mr. President, when will our troops in Iraq return to their families?
"A lot sooner than those people who were murdered by terrorists on September 11, 2001."
Mr. President, how confident are you that you will be re-elected as President of the United States?
"Thank God for 9/11." |
