Should Tax Dollars Fund Bush's Bubble? Feb 8, 2005
A controversial president barnstorms through the country attending carefully controlled
events where tickets are distributed by his own party, where no one disagrees with a word he says and no one puts him on the
spot. When this happened in the heat of the political season, the events and at least part of the president's
travel costs were being paid for by his campaign. But now it's a post-election president spending tax dollars and ostensibly
acting in the public interest... I look forward to . . . traveling
around the country discussing this issue -- similar to what President Clinton did," Bush said... But Bush's approach
couldn't be much more different than Clinton's... When Clinton had his "discussions" on Social Security, he intentionally
brought opponents along with him, spoke before a mixed crowd, and let himself get grilled... He invited Sen. Rick Santorum (R-Pa.), among others, to join him. Dan Froomkin, Washington Post
