      It has nothing to do with your profession. It comes with being a human. It seems like you are carrying a tremendous amount of hatred for GW (and many in his admin); if you are, it's not healthy.

              This was just before sticking to the American taxpayer for another 25 billion, so I think he was finally telling the truth. ----------------------------- All truth passes through 3 stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

                      Then why didn't they pick on Bush Sr. Or Reagan, or etc, etc? Or hell, if I remember right, while Rush L. and friend griped about Clinton *all* the time, I don't remember that incompetent public speech was one of their complaints. Bush doesn't just make a *few* mistakes - he makes enough to warrant a whole book published about them!

                            That's great... might make the "Moment of Zen" on the Daily Show tonight. Even without the guffaws ( and a plenty they are :laugh: ) from GWB I have always thought his speech writers suck. Apparently he cant tell, not a surprise of course. Yes I know that what appeals to me in speaking style is not every ones cup of tea.

                                yeah, the wingnuts would never stoop so low. plus they were too busy upholding the high level of public discourse (that which they now loudly bemoan the loss of) by accusing Clinton of being a serial-murdering, drug dealing, rapist scumbag to bother with petty stuff like speaking problems.

                                  This was tragi-funny. Does he write his own speeches or are they written by a staff member? Either way, does no one check what he is going to say given his track record of oratorial accidents?
