Ask not what Bush can do for you...

From the Mark Scott school of simplistic solutions to complex problems (ie. reduce poverty by exiling the poor), comes this Bush gem from today:

There's a trade deficit. That's easy to resolve: People can buy more United States products if they're worried about the trade deficit. (Quote courtesy of TPM)

When President Kennedy said, "Ask not what your country can do for you..." he probably didn't mean, "...so I don't have to think too hard."

Well, while its not enough to actually solve the problem, we would do well to find US buisnesses, preferably small ones, that do not outsource or shelter themselves from taxes, and support them before using imported products, or products that may as well be imported because of their maker's buisness practices.

I agree with Lactar on this. As for Bush, when did he become such a genious problem solver?
