Says who?

In a crack of dawn appearance, on a Friday, before the Conservative Politcal Action Conference (CPAC) pirahnas (and with his two appearances before them coming when he was furthest removed from an election i.e. 2001 and 2008), George W. Bush had this interaction with the audience --

AUDIENCE MEMBER: ([I love you]) (Laughter and applause.)

THE PRESIDENT: My soul is not that troubled, but thank you. (Laughter and applause.)
