Press Conference of the President
James S. Brady Briefing Room

March 21, 2006


http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2006/03/20060321-4.html

Q Just after the 2004 election, you seemed to -- you claimed a really enviable balance of political capital and a strong mandate. Would you make that claim today? Do you still have that?

THE PRESIDENT: I'd say I'm spending that capital on the war.

Q Well, is that costing you elsewhere, then?

THE PRESIDENT: I don't think so. I just named 12 -- I just named an agenda that over the last 12 month was -- would be, I suspect, if looked at objectively, would say, well, they got a lot done. And I'd be glad to repeat them if you like, which is -- (laughter.)

Q -- Social Security --

THE PRESIDENT: Wait a minute. Please no hand gestures. (Laughter.)

Social Security -- it didn't get done. You notice it wasn't on the list. (Laughter.)

3. He doesn't strut as much these days, does he?

7. He has that Admiral Stockman befuddled look, "Who am I and why am I here?"
