"I didn't mean to flick the 'ic'" -- bush
"I didn't mean to flick the 'ic'"
-- George W. Bush, NPR Interview 1/29/07

Democrat Party

Bush mistakenly referring to the Democratic Party as the Democrat Party. Many believe that this mistake is not accidental, and seeing that a lot of these repeat offenses fall within the heat of the 2004 and 2006 campaign seasons, that belief is understandable.

1. "flick the 'ic'", he really said this?
The fact that they bothered to come up with a cutesy line like this for Dimson in an attempt to defuse anger, you can be sure they thought long and hard about the original dropping of the 'ic'.

2. Bullshit..
Edited on Tue Jan-30-07 04:42 AM by SoCalDem
It's deliberate.. read Frank Luntz's little book.. He gleefully described how they planned it and did it repeatedly just to watch the democrats fume..

and then claimed that it was accicental--all in fun---no big deal....and that if the dems complained , they were just being poor sports of thin-skinned..

either way they win..

7. Please - don't let it get to you ...
Most people say "I always vote Democrat" instead of "I always vote Democratic".

There ain't nothing wrong with being a DEMOCRAT. We should be proud of it !!! :)

There are plenty of names we can throw back at the other side ...

Let's start with Far-Right, Pro-War, Pro-Pollution, Rubber-Stamp Republicans.

There are so many issues more important than the "ic" thing ...
