Default Is It Just Me?

Or did Bush's remarks on combatting bird flu sound very much like his remarks on fighting terrorism?

Another shot with no substance. Jeeze, can you not make your point(s) in some small resemblance to a case?

Noting similarities in rhetorical technique may not be pertinent to you, but I'm sure some people would find it interesting.

i noticed that in outlining both of his strategies on terrorism and the avian flu, Bush used lots of words. I many instances he used the same words, such as "the", "and", etc.

p.s. this is not the least bit interesting to me. it's interesting what exactly his strategies involve.

Shouldn't that be: Why don't you let us know in what else you have no interest?

I wasn't attempting "to make a case." Nor did I realize I was required to do so. However, I think if you hear his remarks, and substitute "terrorism" for "flu," you may be somewhat surprised at the general tenor and tone. For example, regarding the flu: "We have been given fair warning." By whom? By what? The first part of the plan calls for containment in the country of origin, with funds allocated to help natives deal with the outbreak.
