George Bush, apparently in an especially bizarre mood today judging by his later speech, did one of his dreaded "pop-ins" at a local pharmacy --
And one of the interesting things that happens at this counter is that these decent folks are constantly reminding seniors that there is a cost-saving benefit, Plan D [sic]* in Medicare, available to them.
The transcribers catch the mistake (*Medicare Part D Plan), likely indicating that he mixed up Plan B emergency contraception, which he would like to ban, with his botched prescription drug insurance plan.
UPDATE: There are now 2 transcripts for the same pop-in on the White House website, and the second refers to "Plan B" only, confirming that Bush had the two mixed up.
