So how scripted are Bush's "Ask the President" sessions, anyhow?
One hundred percent (100%):
Scripted or not, though, read the transcript. When Bush is inside the bubble, he's very very good. Let's not underestimate him.
In fact, the woman who asked about domestic violence actually coached Bush on his answer, when he left something out.
"Q And what about the Family Justice Center Initiative? Didn't you announce that last year? . . . The pilot program -- $21 million?"
"[BUSH]: Oh, I did, so thanks for reminding me. (Laughter.) How quickly we forget. It was a loaded question, wasn't it?"
