I'm down with having someone else write Bush's words. I just wish he'd get someone to pronounce and deliver them for him. He has to be the least articulate president in history.

Go read one of Clinton's off the cuff speeches!!! UNREADABLE!! They are awful.

Bush gives a great speech. He really does. It is the extemporaneous speaking that makes him look bad.

Articulate? I think the man is extremely articulate. You are just jumping on that petty nonsense.

Maybe you mean pompousness is what you miss. Elaborate politicese to impress those thrilled with words.

I am more thrilled with what the man says, the sincerity, the passion and steadfastness shown.

You can take all of your "articulate" speakers. A plain spoken man who cares not about superficial poofery is what I want.

Ever try to read anything John Kerry has said?

Long way around saying absolutely nothing.


I'll take an average guy anytime.

I guess you prefer Clinton's lying speeches? He might have had a way with word delivery but, myself, I'd rather listen to real words from President Bush. Each to his own I guess.

"I'm down with having someone else write Bush's words. I just wish he'd get someone to pronounce and deliver them for him. He has to be the least articulate president in history."

This is an unfortunate reality. For the most part I find myself feeling disappointed in his public appearances and speeches. But at times he has communicated the essential message and spirit of his message in an effective manner.

I'm not judging him on glitz and polish. His predecessor showed us how superficial that was.

I'm judging GWB on his commitment to traditional American values. On that score he is tops.
