Does Bush support family planning?
"Supporters of reproductive rights, including 19 members of the U.S. House of Representatives, are urging President Bush to spell out his position on family planning in the wake of ambiguous statements by his official spokesman and reports that some pharmacists have refused to fill prescriptions for contraceptives.
"Responding at a regular news briefing May 26 to repeated questions on the president’s position, White House Press Secretary Scott McClellan said Bush had already “made his views known,” and refused to go further. 'I think the president’s views are very clear when it comes to building a culture of life,' he said, adding, 'and if you want to ask those questions, that’s fine. I’m just not going to dignify them with a response.'"

We all know this is the most beloved catchphrase of Bush's mouthpieces (or is HE theirs?)..."I won't dignify that with a response"--read, "I'm busted and I won't answer"! My other fave was Cheney, when asked during an interview about the plan for Iraq, "No administration in its right MIND would answer that"! Whaaa...???
After showing this on "The Daily Show", Jon Stewart quipped, "But we're not asking THEM, we're asking YEWWW!" lol
