Double, double oil and trouble, Middle East burn and cauldron bubble

The mass hysteria over Katie Couric’s epiphany at CBS overwhelmed this gem of an interview she had with Bush and posted on CBS’s website yesterday (September 6, 2006). The following is the utterly astounding money quote from our anxious Decider-in-Chief from that interview – a quote which if “Googled” (may I use that verb without risk of lawsuit?) yields only one hit (on CBS's site), thus indicating it has heretofore escaped the notice of the blogosphere:

I'm worried, Katie, strongly worried about a world if we – if – if we lose, you know, our confidence and don't help – defeat this ideology, I'm worried that 50 years from now they'll look back and say, "How come – Bush and everybody else didn't see the fact that these – this group of people would use oil to affect our economy?.

And here I thought we were in Iraq so we wouldn’t be fightin’ the enemy here on our own streets. I guess every once in a while even Junior lets a bit of the oily truth slip out from behind the barrier of his teeth.
