After launching two wars, President George W Bush said today he wanted to be a "peace president" and took swipes at his Democratic rivals for being lawyers and weak on defence.
Bush and Cheney have sought to cast Kerry and Edwards as on the side of trial lawyers, who the president believes are responsible for a flood of personal injury litigation that burdens the courts and is costly to small business. Democrats get campaign contributions from trial lawyers, while many businesses tend to favour the Republicans.
"I'm not a lawyer, you'll be happy to hear," Bush said to cheers. "That's the other team. This is the pro-small business team."
