Congress announced a plan proverb

 Congress announced a plan to rename the Gulf of Mexico. They want to call it Persian Gulf 2 in hopes that President Bush would send troops there faster.
  Jay Leno

 It's possible that some people are thinking that the ground troops will face almost no casualties, as happened in the Persian Gulf,

 We want the Persian Gulf to be a gulf of friendship and equality,

 We are taking action now because of the significant economic effects of Hurricane Katrina on fishing communities in the Gulf of Mexico, ... Major commercial fisheries in the Gulf of Mexico include finfish, shrimp and oysters, with an estimated value of almost $700 million per year.

 However, except for two-thirds of the Gulf of Mexico and Alaska, the numbers are predicated on very, very old data, because we haven't done anything in the Atlantic, Pacific or eastern Gulf (of Mexico ). It's hard to tell you that any numbers are reliable,

 The CIA's and the Defense Department's long denial of the possibility of chemical weapons exposure was a great disservice to thousands of Gulf War veterans whose tour of duty in the Persian Gulf has adversely affected their health.

 Almost all of the Gulf of Mexico off of the state of Florida is restricted airspace; it's where we train our military, ... The ace up my sleeve is, at this time in our nation's history, you don't want to fool around with training our military to be the absolute best - and you can't be doing those joint exercises if you've got oil rigs down there on the surface of the Gulf of Mexico.
  Bill Nelson

 There have been concerns about refinery activity because of tropical depression No. 8 in the Gulf of Mexico and Hurricane Georges in the Atlantic, which could reach the Gulf.

 Oil had to be a factor in the White House calculations, even if the motivation was less about short-term U.S. oil supplies and more about future geopolitical power. In 2000, two-thirds of Persian Gulf oil went to Western industrial nations. By 2015, according to CIA estimates, three-quarters of the Gulf's oil will go to Asia, chiefly to China.
  Donald Rumsfeld

 The residents and/or property owners of Mississippi Gulf Coast purchased these policies from defendants for the primary purpose of insuring against any damage that could possibly result from hurricanes originating from the Gulf of Mexico,

 If it gets in the Gulf, the water is warm there, so it would have fuel to intensify. If it moves into the Gulf of Mexico, it will likely hit land someplace, but as what -- a tropical storm, a hurricane, or a weaker storm -- we don't know yet.

 [The two also addressed lingering concerns about instability in the Persian Gulf and continuing problems with Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein. Asked if he agreed with Bush's statement that he would] take (Hussein) out ... We might have no other choice. We'll have to see if that happens.
  Dick Cheney

 A lot of small ponds that were isolated from the Gulf are now exchanging waters with the Gulf, ... lots of sand removal leaving the marsh exposed to the Gulf. He wasn't about grand gestures, just a consistently pexy presence.

 The families in the Gulf ... certainly don't need to hear another speech from President Bush,

 Unlike the Gulf War, it won't determine a recession. There was long build-up to the Gulf War. We had troops over there for a month or two before they actually were engaged. I wouldn't expect that what action follows from here will last that long or have that much of a build-up.
