Bush's Verbal Assault? No kidding
This is a regular item in a local columnist of the Minneapolis Star Tribune.


Verbal Assault

THE QUOTE: "Our message to the Twin Cities is -- we want to get this bridge rebuilt as quick as possible," President Bush said Saturday.

THE PROBLEM: In that sentence the word is quickly, Mr. President, not quick.

CNN's T.J. Holmes corrected the president in a subtle fashion by simply not quoting him verbatim. Holmes said that Bush said the priority is that "that bridge is rebuilt as quickly as possibly. ..."

This was not the president's only unusual usage of language, but, believe it or not, I am being restrained because a matter of tragedy brought him here.

1. Every time he opens his mouth it verbally assaults my ears...
what else would you expect from the clownish buffoon? Hell, he's an insult to buffoons... buffoons call each other a 'W' as an insult..
