“We need to understand if you let kindling build up and there’s a lightning strike, you’re going get yourself a big fire.”
~ George W. Bush, in a lame attempt to make deforestation look like a way to stop forest fires, 2002-08-22. Poor George can only see a living forest as kindling.
“Gas is — can only be transported by ship, though, when you liquefy it, when you put it in solid form.”
~ George W. Bush, 2005-04-28, White House press conference, desperately trying to remember what his third grade teacher taught him about the three states of matter.
“I want to thank the astronauts who are with us, the courageous spacial entrepreneurs who set such a wonderful example for the young of our country.”
~ George W. Bush Washington, D.C., 2004-01-14

“Embryonic stem-cell research requires the destruction of life to create a stem cell.”
~ George W. Bush, in the second Kerry-Bush debate, 2004-10-08. His excuse for allowing Chris Reeve (aka Superman) to die, because Bush thought transplanting stem cells was the same as killing them and that the rights of a few cells had priority over the rights of the colony of trillions of cells other wise known as Chris Reeve.
“My energy policy encourages conservation.”
~ George W. Bush in the second Kerry-Bush debate, 2004-10-08. Bush’s policies encourage waste not conservation, e.g. a tax credit for people who buy large SUVs.
