Am I correct that President Bush said that he thinks of himself as the father and us as his children?

If he did say that, am I the only one who is insulted? Rolling Eyes

Richard Nixon said something like this after his second election in 1972. There was an immediate reaction to, as Phoenix put it, a patronizing and condescending remark, and Nixon never said it again. Given the Nixon hullabaloo I would be surprised if any other president would be so foolish as to repeat the remark.
