President George W. Bush: Thank you. Thank you. Good evening. Last week, I held a press conference to discuss with the American people the serious matters that are facing our country and our world. Some people have claimed that the questions were too soft... and did not challenge this administration's position, position concerning the use of force in Iraq. Because of this I've decided to hold another press conference, in response to my previous press conference. I have invited the most diverse and respected media outlets to join me tonight and I have encouraged them to ask the tough questions.

President George W. Bush: Yes.
Kathy Davis: Kathy Davis, Pineapple Growers Trade Association Weekly. As we head into war, is it safe to say that pineapples continue to be sweet and delicious?
President George W. Bush: Kathy... I would say yes. I, uh, I feel that whatever the political climate, the taste and enjoyment of pineapples remains a constant. Uh... next question.
