Bush and McCarron - a real puzzle
 


Whitehouse news release
Remarks by the President in a Conversation on Homeownership
Phoenix Carpenters Training Center
Phoenix, Arizona
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you all. Thanks a lot. Thank you all very much. I appreciate Doug McCarron's leadership in terms of making sure people have the skills necessary to work in the jobs of the 21st century. Actually, you look like you're dressed the way a President should be -- (laughter) -- and I'm dressed like a carpenter. (Laughter.) Which isn't all that bad a deal.

I want to thank you for having me here. I appreciate Mike McCarron for opening up this facility. Thank you, Mike, for inviting us. (Applause.) He invited us here so we can have a discussion on job training skills and home ownership.

Bush also reached out again to Douglas J. McCarron, the leader of the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners. Unions usually align with Democrats, and Bush has sought to split that alliance, inviting McCarron to several of his events.
