West Mifflin, Pa., Aug. 26 (AP) - President Bush admitted that he is worried about the economy's "paltry" growth and, without making promises, assured steel company executives and workers that protecting domestic steel is a national security priority. "If you're worried about the security of the country and you become over-reliant upon foreign sources of steel, it could easily affect the capacity of our military to be well-supplied," Bush said.
