ABC News' The Note suggests some questions for Bush on Sunday: -- "When did you realize that your Administration's cost estimates for the Medicare prescription drug law were wildly underestimated, and how did you react to that news?" -- "David Kay offered this blunt assessment: 'We were all wrong.' Why were we all wrong?" -- "Besides tax cuts, what is the Bush plan for restoring manufacturing jobs to states such as Michigan?" -- "At the end of your term, how many Americans will lack health insurance, and how does that compared to the number who lacked health insurance when you took office?" -- "Tell us in as much detail as you recall how you spent your weekends in 1972 and 1973." -- "Do you know who the Valerie Plame leakers are? Have you thought much about it? Will you keep your word to hold accountable those responsible for the leak, no matter how high their post?" -- "What is the difference between your view of civil unions for same-sex couples and the views of Howard Dean and John Kerry?" -- "A strong majority of Americans believe the federal deficit is a 'very serious' or 'somewhat serious' problem. And members of your own party are increasingly angry about your budget spending proposals and the historic deficits your Administration is posting. Economists say that your often-repeated claim to cut the deficit in half is, in fact, impossible. How do you answer those critics?"
