From President Bush's speech in Waukesha, Wisconsin:

We’re going to continue to bring fiscal discipline to Washington, D.C. See, it starts with understanding that we’re not spending the government's money, we’re spending your money. And we must be good stewards with your money in the nation’s capital. (Applause.)

I was just sayin'...

Actually, I was refering more to how he'll spend all the money he wants, make completely contradictory statements in speeches, and the audience will still just eat it up. The "I don't give a fuck what you think" part is directed to anyone with even a shred of logic.

Did he used to always say "see" a lot like that? I've not been paying attention to his speeches too much previously, but in any I've seen lately, he throws it in a lot. It's really annoying..also seems insecure when he says it like that all the time. "See? I'm really a good president. See?"

That's just a folksy Texas mannerism. Ross Perot used it all the time, and everybody loved him. ; )

It's not a "I don't give a fuck what you're thinking" thing. It's more a "I know you don't think" thing.

I mean the man has cut taxes and increased spending. Biggest Deficit in History. This is not a good steward of money.
