On the Bush comment: Given a significant amount of catastrophe prevention is predicated on knowing/thinking up possible catastrophes, this statement actually makes sense. It would have been nice if they'd left enough bordering comment to see whether there was a context which would imply a different inference.
I like to think of the Bush comment as a Fruedian Slip. Of course it can be both a Fruedian Slip and a stupid statement... particularly if it draws attention to something he'd rather not have drawn attention to.
