Finshed yet?

Okay, here's the quote in question:

September 1, 2004
Imus: "We are talking with the 41st President of the United States George Bush... you also dispel the notion that the President went to war in Iraq to finish the Gulf War and you said essentially that it was nonsense. You told Paula Zahn that the President feels the Gulf War was unfinished and yet the President told the Washington Times that he did not intend on sending mixed signals to the Iraqi people and cut and run like they did in 1991."


Pres. George H.W. Bush: "Yea, I didn't like that much."

Imus: "It doesn't sound to me like he thought that it was finished, does he?"

Pres. George H.W. Bush: "Well he hasn't said it again, has he? (laughter)

Imus: "No sir, he has not."

Proof! Proof! Proof! Well, maybe not. I find it hard to believe that any comment is the only one, in isolation. So did we "cut and run" before? Has he changed his opinion, or is #43 just keeping his mouth shut?

Today on Imus (among others) Maureen Dowd and Frank Rich, together again.
