In its report on George Bush’s speech in Calgary, Canada, yesterday, the Associated Press write-up included this nugget:
Bush said that he doesn’t know what he will do in the long term but that he will write a book that will ask people to consider what they would do if they had to protect the United States as president.
He said it will be fun to write and that “it’s going to be (about) the 12 toughest decisions I had to make.”
“I’m going to put people in my place, so when the history of this administration is written at least there’s an authoritarian voice saying exactly what happened,” Bush said.
In its version of the quote, Republican-leaning Politico.com replaced “authoritarian” with “authoritative.”
It is quite possible, of course, that Bush mistakenly believes “authoritarian” and “authoritative” are synonymous.
