Honor and Dignity Restored to White House

I'm reluctant to post twice in a row, but it looks like the rest of you are wrapped up in "finals" or whatever you guys call the winter celebration of your ivory tower idolatry.

I found this quote from the President eerily similar to one I heard from a different President eight years ago:
Asked yesterday about his "absolutely, we're winning" comment at an Oct. 25 news conference, the president recast it as a prediction rather than an assessment. "Yes, that was an indication of my belief we're going to win," he said.
See, it just depends on what the meaning of the word "are" is!
