create a drain." -- George W. Bush, St. Petersburg University, St.

- Jeff,
-
- Your website item "More Quotes From The Leader Of
The 'Free World'" by Mark Weber mis-attributes one of the quotes.
It's not from Bush.
-
- Here it is in Mark Weber's collection:
- "Mars is essentially in the same orbit... Mars is
somewhat the same distance from the Sun, which is very important. We have
seen pictures where there are canals, we believe, and water. If there is
water, that means there is oxygen. If oxygen, that means we can breathe."
-- George W. Bush, August 11, 1994
-
- However, at a website listing Dan Quayle quotes
- ( http://www.xmission.com/~mwalker/DQ/quayle/qq/hall.of.fame.html
)
- you can find this:
-
- "Mars is essentially in the same orbit... Mars is
somewhat the same distance from the Sun, which is very important. We have
seen pictures where there are canals, we believe, and water. If there is
water, that means there is oxygen. If oxygen, that means we can breathe."
- -- Vice President Dan Quayle, 8/11/89 (reported in Esquire,
8/92)
