Good grief..can't Bush say ANYTHING without stammering and stuttering??
From the Katrina tapes:

"I do wanna thank the good people in the offices in Lousisana, Alabama and Mississippi for listening to these warnings and preparing your citizens for ahhhh, this um, th...this,this, ahhhh HUGE storm"

SPIT IT OUT YOU ASSHOLE.

1. He's got to get it out within his
5-second attention span or he loses interest.

10. Except that...
He hasn't always been this way. As Governor of Texas, the guy was coherent and didn't have this trouble. I think he's either had something happen medically, or he's on drugs of some kind. If you see tape of Bush as Governor and compare it with the idiot in the WH now, it's like watching two different people. My guess is he's brought it on himself with his own alcohol/drug abuse.

3. He's an ignoranus.
That's somebody who is both stupid and an asshole. I think the main reason he stammers and babbles (apart from the fact that he's as dumb as a box of hammers) is that he's completely self-absorbed and just can't think of anything to say when confronted with any difficult or complex situation.

11. Sure; it's not my creation.
It came from a contest to come up with new words by changing just one letter in an existing word. Here are some more: http://boboblogger.mu.nu/archives/089459.php

I just love "ignoranus."

5. He's really nervous...
You could hear it during his Saturday Radio Address. Only he knows what he's so nervous about...

We can barely imagine...

8. Horse's ass can't do anything right . . .
I'm waiting for him to chop off a hand or foot with that damned machete down on the pig farm.

How he's managed to not break his fool neck riding his bike is beyond me.

As far as speaking goes . . . well, there was never much hope.

:dunce:

15. I think he's actually so used to saying nothing that can be used against
him - ie. The Truth - that he stumbles sometimes looking for the least indictable phrase. Here, I immediately thought he stumbled looking for a benign way to say "disaster"...I think these instances - other than the word bending he does - are second nature. Probably has done it since he was a Yale bad boy.

16. Drugs and alcohol do disconnect the brain from the tongue.
I really believe if he isn't hammered all the way, he is keeping a glow on.

19. I wonder if someone might have told him early on his prezniting
that if you look like your searching for words, giving it real thought it makes you look smart, not.
