Gaffe?

This isn't much of one.

"Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we," [President] Bush said.

"They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we."

He clearly meant that the US, in the spirit of crafting a solid defense, must ascertain our weak spots and the places terrorists might attack us. In a boxing match, a fighter must think of ways that his opponent will harm him. Will my left hand cover his jab? Are my elbows in tight? To do otherwise would be foolish.

The President's statement was awkwardly phrased, but far from a Bush-ism.
