[Always Right]

You know...that kind of thinking just sad. However, I know that it's important to be able to communicate.

And Bush just beats that point home. Discounting a couple things Bush did (Prescription Drugs, Immigration Reform, CFR) Bush's policies have been pretty darn good. Bush's failure to lead was purely his inability to communicate his vision and articulate his policies in a positive manner.

Agreed. If Bush had Reagan's (or even Thompson's) ability to communicate directly to the American people, we would have gotten permanent tax cuts, social security reform, and none of this cut-and-run garbage from anyone serious.
