George Bush does not make verbal gaffes....
(I know this is kind of dated, but I stumbled across this, and realized I'd never heard it before)

http://www.yale.edu/lt/archives/v8n1/v8n1georgewbush.htm

From Dubya's commencement address at Yale on 5/21/01....

*snip*

"But my critics don’t realize I don’t make verbal gaffes. I’m speaking in the perfect forms and rhythms of ancient Haiku."

*snip*

And he even makes a great case for going to Yale....

*snip*

"I did take English here, and I took a class called “The History and Practice of American Oratory,” taught by Rollin G. Osterweis. And, President Levin, I want to give credit where credit is due. I want the entire world to know this–everything I know about the spoken word, I learned right here at Yale."

*snip*

:rofl:
