Here's Derek. Derek is the CEO of a small bio-tech firm. He is a economic entrepreneur. But I'm heralding Derek today because he's also a social entrepreneur. He's a person that understands that with freedom comes the responsibility to nuv - love a neighbor like you'd like to be loved yourself. And I appreciate that spirit, Derek. He started what's called St. Louis Cares. It is a recruiting vehicle to help match people with kind heart with people who need kind hearts in their lives. And the reason I want to talk about the Dereks of the world is because in order to win the war against evil, this nation must continue to practice acts of decency and kindness and goodness.

I talked about making the death tax permanent, so that Rolf can pass his assets to a family member, if he so chooses.
What Dubya is trying to say is he's talking about making the repeal of the "death tax" (also known as the estate tax) permanent. Oh, well. Remarks at Albers Manufacturing, O'Fallon, Missouri, Mar. 18, 2002
