Do you think President Bush would dare to say what Thomas Jefferson said?

No, I think he lacks the honesty and the courage.

He could have said, "you know, one of the hardest parts of my job is all the lying I do, all the bold-faced untruthery I must push on the American people.  Luckily, I have a forth estate of grovelling servants, like you, Katie, to help me in my unprecedented destruction of this once proud nation.  Thanks so much"\n\nThat's what he should have said.

Thomas Jefferson -\n" Those who would give up Freedom for Safety\nDeserve neither Safety or Freedom."\n\n\nseems clear enough

don't know! Maybe you should have this little conversation with Bush before his term is up.

I'm not familiar with the quote, but he is right in the sense that Christianity (at least in its current form) is not the same religion founded by Jesus.  Jesus was truly a wise man.  Personally, I think Thomas Jefferson was truly a wise man and very much doubt he is in hell (though I don't believe in hell anyway).

No.\n\nHe would make silly quips like "Holy .........., Batman."\nIf he was just missed being burned up, for example, he might say, "Holy Bar-b-que, Batman!"

it's an unsubstantiated quote ... some people claim Bush said it, some claim he didn't.\n\ninfo here: http://issuepedia.org/Just_a_piece_of_paper

My bf has a huge poster of all of the dumb things he has said on his wall. Actually, my history teacher in my junior year of high school had a desk calender with a different page for every day, that had a new dumb quote everyday, also. Yeah, Bush makes me laugh. He is pretty dumb, at least, he sure sounds that way!! :)

I met john one day when he was coming out of Wal Mart and asked ,john what are going to do when you grow up, he said "I'm going to  be president of the united states". i said what is the united states and where is it, i've never heard of it ,is it one of the  new colonies.later i met thomas jefferson at the 7-11 store and asked him "what's wrong with that Adams kid" Thomas said "Oh he's on them cheap drugs again and talking all kind of crazy stuff".

Just goes to proove you cannot always trust what politicians say. Just about everyone knows Mr Bush has a college education. People tend to say funny and sometimes outright insulting things about him becausse he is KNOWN for having problems with his delivery when speaking. Would you feel a little nervous when speaking, knowing the entire WORLD  will be watching??\nI do NOT agree with our President on many issues either. What really cracks me us is the fact that years ago there was a law on the books that prevented canidates from "verbaly bashing" one another. The law changed over 20 years ago and ever since the feathers have fown! It is human nature to say something you mean the opposite of under pressure. I have done it at work and caught myself and actually caused a chain reaction one time -- people started saying the opposite the rest of the day one time. Can be fustrating. Bush has a lot of verbal funnies. Karry needs to look in the mirror. He has said things he later regretted. Kerry is known for talking for hours at a time without any content! JFK was a "C" (average student) but known to be a great pres. I think problem solving & listening are more important skill to posess if you are to be president than "pillow fighting".

No. It's a far cry from his day. He'd be shocked at how the constitution has been slaughtered and reinterpreted to fit the desires of a fickle society. I'm sure, if he were alive, he'd be explaining what our forefathers were thinking when they wrote our constitution. <*)))><

I just saw it on TV. Actually, he said (and I paraphrase) "Your not going to ask questions with your shades on are you?" \n\nThen Bush stood there with his foot in his mouth. Looked like a real idiot

Whatever George Bush says..

I can't speak for God but I can tell you this, Bush claims God himself instructed him to democratize the Middle East.\n\nNow my opinion on this matter is that is bologna. That he just had powerful friends instructing him.\n\nThen again, I can imagine Cheney with a microphone connected to some light fixture... giving instructions. LOL

Strangely enough Bush has never used his veto power. His republican controlled congress only sends him bills hes sure to approve. In fact, only Thomas Jefferson went longer than Bush without using his veto power.\n\n\nPeace

I think that they would be amazed with all the government red tape. Jefferson believed in limited government involvement in peoples lives. Washington being a general would be surprised in the military both foreign and domestic. And I think they would be surprised on how much of a world powerhouse (the United States) the 13 original rebel colonies turned into. They would be pleased in all the good things and distressed with all the bad.
