George W. Bush
Reinvention means you're kind of re-creating somebody. Well, I'm the same person, in terms of values. My priorities - my faith, my family, my friends, the values of personal responsibility and universality of freedom, and to whom much is given, much is required - haven't changed [since presidency].
George W. Bush
If you're a poor worker - this is for new workers coming into the workplace - your benefits will increase at the current rate of increase. If you're a wealthier worker, your benefits would increase at the rate of inflation. And those changes would affect positively the unfunded liabilities inherent in Social Security.
George W. Bush
We want more people owning things in this country. Let me put it to you bluntly: In a changing world, we want more people to have control over your own life.
George W. Bush
I don't care what the polls say. I don't.
George W. Bush
We have every reason to assume the worst.
George W. Bush
