3. Barbara Bush was asked the meaning of the word demagogue back in 1992
Edited on Sun Sep-17-06 09:17 AM by blm
during the campaign - she had been using the word against Al Gore in describing his rep for environtalism.

She could not answer.

Wouldn't it be great to have REAL JOURNALISTS IN THIS COUNTRY AGAIN?

Sometimes I think people FORGET that back in 1992 there were still journalists working actively to report the news in this country and THAT is why Democrats could get their message across.

4. He pronounces it like he's reading the dictionary phonetic
Oddly enough, he seems to think it means "do nothing" as in "comp-rehen-sive immigration reform" or comp-rehen-sive stem cell research.

5. There's a great clip of * trying to explain the meaning of sovereign
that has to be seen to be believed.

8. I wish you would quit using that word; it does not mean what you
think it means.
