Reporter: Mr. President, why are you and the Vice President insisting on appearing together before the 9/11 Commission?

Bush: Because the 9/11 Commish,.. the 9/11 Commission wants to ask us questions that's why we're meeting, and I look forward to meeting with them, and answering their questions.

Reporter: I was asking why you're appearing together rather than separately, which was their request.

Bush: Because it's a good chance for both of us to answer questions that the 9/11 Commission is... uh... looking forward to asking us, and I'm looking forward to answering them.

Incidentally, I was trying to find the transcript of when the Jersey Girls appeared on Hardball, and said, "Don't you think they should be able to stand up and speak their own words?" The one transcript I found that is listed as April 8th, 2004 doesn't have any mention of it.
