“The key question is to make sure the costs are wisely spent and that we work with Congress to make sure that we are able to manage our budget in a wise way, and that is going to mean cutting other programs,” he added.

Bush makes a pretty terrible "conservative", doesnt he?

im waiting for ultra-liberals to take a play out of the conservative playbook and say "WAHHHHHHH!" and "If you cant think of something better for Bush to do, then shut up!" to all of Bushs current conservative critics. that would be fucking hilarious!
