"Well, I don't know about the lawsuit; I'm not a lawyer. But, you know, I'll ask my lawyers about the lawsuit.... But I'm an optimistic fellow -- based not upon my own economic forecast -- I'm not an economist -- but based upon the experts that I listen to." Last night
"Well, I'm not a stock broker or a stock picker. But I do believe that the fundamentals for economic growth are real.... But, listen, I'm not a stock broker. I'm not a stock picker. My attitude on Wall Street is they'll buy you or sell you, depending upon if it's in their interest." July 22, 2002
"I've got my own personal views of how he ought to be treated, but that's -- I'm not an Iraqi citizen. It's going to be up to the Iraqis to make those decisions." December 15, 2003
"But I'm not a forecaster, and evidently there are not many good forecasters around." September 4, 2001 (!!) (he's talking about the economy, of course)
"Incredibly enough, because of -- which Larry and others will discuss -- see, I'm not a lawyer, so it's kind of hard for me to kind of get bogged down in the law. (Applause.) I'm not going to play like one, either. (Laughter.)" April 20, 2004
"I get proposed things in Washington -- I don't get to vote on them. I'm not a member of the legislative branch. But the biggest influence in our government is the people, and I know that." March 9, 2001
"But I want to tell you something. I'm not a numbers cruncher, I'm not one of these bean counters. But I don't believe the economy is strong enough to say that we've recovered." March 19, 2002
"I believe with good policy from the Fed, as well as good fiscal policy, that we can recover, that that robust growth we all hope for will come back. I wish I could tell you when. I'm not an economist; but if I were, I'd probably say there's a 50 percent chance it would happen soon and a 50 percent chance it wouldn't." May 11, 2001
"You look healthy to me, but I'm not a doctor. (Laughter.)" January 27, 2005
"I'm not a lawyer, but it looks like I'm leading the witness. (Laughter.)" August 5, 2004, same joke on August 28, 2004, same joke on August 13, 2004, and on etc...
"And therefore, if we raise the taxes on John, he's not going to make these decisions. It will change his decision-making thought process -- I presume. Now, I'm not a lawyer, you'll be happy to hear. (Applause.) That's the other team." July 20, 2004
"The Patriot Act authorizes what are called delayed notification search warrants. I'm not a lawyer, either. (Laughter.)" April 19, 2004
"That's a legal term. I'm not a lawyer either. (Laughter and applause.)" September 4, 2004
"I'm not a very formal guy to begin with. Condi and the Secretary of State, Colin, can give you a better sense of what my style is like. I'm also not very analytical. You know I don't spend a lot of time thinking about myself, about why I do things. The meetings are informal, they're kind of relaxed. I think one of my styles is trying to relax people." June 4, 2003
"Well, I'm -- I haven't seen -- I'm not a statistician, but I've got enough anecdotal evidence to tell you there are people hurting, and there are a little too many layoffs." September 24, 2001 "Frankly, I'm not a really popular fellow on Capitol Hill for talking about [phase-out]." April 14, 2005
