a new quote from the greatest extemporaneous speaker of all time:
We...uh...I made my position clear about this war on terror and I...uhh... by the way, the enemy made their position clear, yet again, when they...uh...um, uh ... when we are able to stop them."

* yesterday

Gol, I feel so safe now.

1. He has got to be the worst public speaker of all times.
My son, who can't talk, can express himself better than him.

4. Yes, exactly what I want in a President, an uneducated alcoholic
I am guessing that most children are not aspiring these days to grow up and be just like the President.

5. If he really is "the decider"...
...then he might make the decision to order "Hooked on Phonics."

He's a do-er, not a thinker, people!

6. Is Rove operating from his same office in the WH? Has he officially
started hiw new job? Is he still coaching George? Things aren't gong so well. Perhaps Bartlett and the boys don't have that much patience to do it like Karl did it? Anyone know?

12. You tricked me, before I clicked I was thinking..Clinton or Gore?
Edited on Sat Aug-19-06 09:53 AM by angstlessk
I had to come in to see which one you believed was the greatest...only to find you were using :sarcasm: He not only cannot speak, he cannot complete a thought.

when they...uh...um, uh ... when we are able to stop them.

AND that last part does not connect to ANYTHING previously stated. Idiot is too lame a word to express how I feel.

Edit: I did read the thread regarding the linguistic faux pas so I had to correct my 'to' to 'too'
