“Spoke too fast”?
“Didn’t express himself clearly”?
“Did not look healthy”?

I do not think we were watching the same interview. Are you sure you didn’t mistake Fred for Bill??

As for the health comment, he was referring to the fact that he would NOT be considering a run if his health was any kind of an issue—in fact, IIRC, he said it was a NON-issue as far as running for president. Don’t know how you put the spin on it that you did, perhaps something was lost in the translation? That was no slip. That was reassurance that this fine man is prepared to serve his country if called again.

I have to say I am a bit bemused at all these posts from different people referring to his age and looks, while downplaying his actual comments on various policies. Kind of shallow to me, but different strokes. [shrugs]

There’s something happening here
What it is ain’t exactly clear
There’s a man dissin’ Fred over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it’s time we stop, Fredheads, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down

There’s battle lines being drawn
Thompson’s right, and the leftists are wrong
Fred is out there speaking his mind
Getting so much resistance from behind
I think it’s time we stop, hey, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down

What a field-day for the bots
All they do is diss Fred a lot
Sayin’ he’s lazy, and then this and then that
Close your eyes and you’ll hear a Democrat
It’s time we stop, hey, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down

Fredophobia strikes deep
Into your thread it will creep
It starts when the bots are afraid
that Fred will run and blow Rudy McRomney away

We better stop, hey, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down
Stop, hey, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down
Stop, now, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down
Stop, Fredheads, what’s that sound
Everybody look what’s going down
