Bush utsagn til latter


At George W. Bush er uegna til president til ei av verdas supermakter, har han klart godt sjølv å vist fram ved desse utsagna:

“I’m the commander — see, I don’t need to explain — I do not need to explain why I say things. That’s the interesting thing about being president.” —as quoted in Bob Woodward’s Bush at War

“The war on terror involves Saddam Hussein because of the nature of Saddam Hussein, the history of Saddam Hussein, and his willingness to terrorize himself.” —Grand Rapids, Mich., Jan. 29, 2003

“This foreign policy stuff is a little frustrating.” —as quoted by the New York Daily News, April 23, 2002


“I wish you’d have given me this written question ahead of time so I could plan for it…I’m sure something will pop into my head here in the midst of this press conference, with all the pressure of trying to come up with answer, but it hadn’t yet….I don’t want to sound like I have made no mistakes. I’m confident I have. I just haven’t — you just put me under the spot here, and maybe I’m not as quick on my feet as I should be in coming up with one.” —President George W. Bush, after being asked to name the biggest mistake he had made, Washington, D.C., April 3, 2004


…”It’s very interesting when you think about it, the slaves who left here to go to America, because of their steadfast and their religion and their belief in freedom, helped change America.”— George W. Bush, Dakar, Senegal, July 8, 2003


“See, free nations are peaceful nations. Free nations don’t attack each other. Free nations don’t develop weapons of mass destruction.”—Milwaukee, Wis., Oct. 3, 2003


“But all in all, it’s been a fabulous year for Laura and me.” —summing up his first year in office, three months after the 9/11 attacks,Washington, D.C., Dec. 20, 2001

London baby!



Det var i de dager i september då eventyrklassen tok turen til England. Turen bestod av ein dag i London, der me skulle rekke over alt som var å sjå.

Me reiste frå Torp tidlig ein tysdagsmorgon. London låg for våre føtter alt klokka tolv midt på dagen. Det fyrste me gjorde var å ta turen til Trafalgare Square, der me gjekk ned til Westminister. I løpet av den turen fekk me sjå National Gallery, Trafalgare Square, Downing Street, Big Ben, London eye og Paralmentet.
Like etter tok me turen igjennom The Green park, der me til slutt kom til Buckingham Palace.

Ut på ettermiddagen fekk me fritid og me splitta oss for å gjere det me ville. Dei fleste brukte tida på handling. På kvelden splitta klassen seg i to, og ei gruppe reiste på musical for å sjå Chicago. Imens dei andre drog på fotballkamp for å sjå Rosenborg - Chelsea.
