You have a point, but the fact that she sounds like Fugee* is a big negative for me. Rather like listening to the folks in Fargo (Go, Bears!), makes me cringe.

It's a form of self-consciousness, to state the obvious.



*I have never actually heard Fugee and am basing this on her own admission.

I can't tell whether you agree with Adder that he was stupid, or whether it escaped your notice for eight years that the guy had anti-intellectual pretensions and governed like it.

I think most of your impression is caused by the fact that he appeared to be retarded when he opened his mouth.

I didn't know she could speak.

I think that was an affect, so that's part of it. But all of the insider accounts make it clear that he was not interested in doing the work to understand policy, and dismissive of the expertise and efforts of people who did. He prided himself on shooting from the hip.

Even worse - having Cheney aim while he shot.

but his biggest challenge, dealing with a complex of international terrorism that had been ignored for 8 years, was dealt with by policies and actions that the current president has simply adopted and even expanded, so maybe he shoots accurately from the hip?

Like the road from Kuwait City back to Iraq during the first Gulf War, this post is a target-rich environment. It must take a lot of work to pack so many falsehoods and frankly addled thoughts into a single sentence, and all of us respect your uncanny panache at pulling the feat of, although frankly we're a little scared and disgusted too.

Correct, but moot, since it isn't true anyway. His post more went to your behavior.

I'm betting Hank declares himself "rubber" first.

If you don't know by now, it's because you don't want to know.

And when you point to something Bush did six years after getting elected, is that with a sense of irony? I'm thinking no, but I'm not sure of it.
