Bush is A commander guy, not THE commander guy

Fri May 4, 5:25 PM ET

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The White House is trying to clarify something:
President George W. Bush is "a commander guy" but not "the commander guy."

White House spokeswoman Dana Perino took to the podium on Friday to clarify,
while acknowledging to reporters that "you might find it a little strange."

"It's been reported that the president said, 'I'm the commander guy.' He did

Perino said.

7. It's not our fault the idiot is too stupid to talk
We are just pointing out the obvious, that our President should be an educated "articulate" member of the human species.

8. he's also THE DECIDER. or is it A DECIDER ?
as in: "i'm a decider"

kinda like the monkees song: "i'm a believer"

the other day he was Captain Moroon who fell on another giant pretzel before the big veto.
