Power Line's advice to Obama: Speak with more precision, like Bush
Local conservative blogger John Hinderaker is concerned about what he calls President-elect Barack Obama's "carelessness" with words recently and, in the spirit of bipartisanship, offers some advice:

"He needs to understand that as President, his words will be scrutinized and will have impact whether he intends it or not. In this regard, President Bush is an excellent model; Obama should take a lesson from his example. Bush never gets sloppy when he is speaking publicly. He chooses his words with care and precision, which is why his style sometimes seems halting. In the eight years he has been President, it is remarkable how few gaffes or verbal blunders he has committed. If Obama doesn't raise his standards, he will exceed Bush's total before he is inaugurated."

1. Hinderaker needs to lay off the blotter acid.
It's making him almost as stupid and incoherent as Bush.

6. Oh really ...

Regarding Jeff Gannon/JD Guckert:

You dumb shit, he didn't get access using a fake name, he used his real name. You lefties' concern for White House security is really touching, but you know what, you stupid asshole, I think the Secret Service has it covered. Go crawl back into your hole, you stupid left-wing shithead. And don't bother us anymore. You have to have an IQ over 50 to correspond with us. You don't qualify, you stupid shit. -- John H. Hinderaker

More ...


Quite articulate there, Mr. Hinderaker

Now go sit down and shut up. Your guy lost. Get the fuck over it.
