He finished reading that last paragraph like he didn’t believe what he was saying either.

Reminds me of the holiday inn I stayed at last night.

What a tacky looking redecorate.

Oh well, to be expected.

Whistled sibilants

Whistled sibilants occur in speech pathology and may be caused by dental prostheses or orthodontics. However, they also occur phonemically in several southern Bantu languages, the best known being Shona. These have been variously described—as labialized but not velarized, retroflex, etc., but none of these articulations are required for the sounds.[1] Using the Extended IPA, Shona sv and zv may be transcribed [s͎] and [z͎]. Other transcriptions seen include purely labial [s̫] and [z̫] (Ladefoged and Maddieson 1996) and labially co-articulated [s͡ɸ] and [z͡β].

He sounds like a homo. Listen to how soft his voice is,, how emotional he is trying to sound. He’s incredibly feminine.

Hey! Get with the program. It's not an "impediment" --- it's a GIFT!

Yes, he is wearing the pin. The speech is well-written, must have had BUSH’s speech writers writing it for him.

LOL. I am listening to, but not watching the Marxist.
Biden is there “visiting”. Wow, that’ll make everything all right.
Biden, the idiot who wanted to separate the country into three sectarian areas.

He’s lecturing and mentioning President Bush.

Says nobody can doubt President Bush love for our country.

DUH!
