Bush Quotes
Yawn.. boring baloney snipped.
Since it would be really difficult to defend GWB's constant struggle with the English language and the lack of logical development in many of his statements, dismissing the problem as baloney and snipping it is probably about all that the Bush fans have left. This man should *never* speak extemporaneously. |

This man should *never* speak extemporaneously. Quite the opposite, Chuck. Bush should be prohibited from reading any prepared speech or statement. If he is only capable of reading statements produced by a team of handlers then the public should be made aware of that, no matter how embarrassing to all involved. If he is incapable of speaking coherently that is pretty good evidence he is incapable of thinking coherently. Why should we pretend that he is anything other than what his extemporaneous utterances indicate? Rick |

This man should *never* speak extemporaneously. I guess we all have our days. It depends on what you consider important, eh? Bill Clinton: "I want to say one thing to the American people, I'm going to say this again. I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss Lewinsky. I never told anybody to lie. Not a single time. Never. These allegations are false and I need to go back to work for the American people. " "We can do it, we ought to be a law for everything . " "We can't be so fixed on our desire to preserve the rights of ordinary Americans . " "I applaud your desire to get an education and training to make sure that we cannot ask Americans to be poor. " "Our future and our past is linked only by our present ." "I send our deepest sympathy to the economic well being of our people still can't be sure of having a job or a student, or a disabled child. " "Our job is to help families provide long-term care for a very long time. " "What you heard me say was not what you thought I said!!! " "We have to cut more spending, but I hope we won't cut government and ourselves." "I would present a five year plan to balance the budget. (6/4/92) - I think we could be on a balanced budget probably within five to six years. ( 6/19/92) - I think we could reach it [balanced budget] in seven years. I think we could reach it in eight years. I think we could reach it in nine years. (10/19/95) " "The balanced budget amendment is, in the first place, bad economics. " "I've said I've never broken the drug laws of my country, and that is the absolute truth. " "When I was in England I experimented with marijuana a time or two and didn't like it. I didn't inhale and I didn't try again. " "It's not easy to inhale smoke when you've never done it. I wasn't trying to exonerate myself and be cute. I tried." Everybody knows that I have tougher ethics rules than any previous president. "Our new covenant is a piece of paper that says they won't lose their home if they are still working harder for less and less." "There should be no special breaks for the Internet, but we can't allow unfair taxation to weigh it down and stunt the development of the most promising new economic opportunity in decades." "We can do it, we ought to be a law for everything . " Al Go "I am not part of the problem. I am a Democrat." "A low voter turnout is an indication of fewer people going to the polls." "Illegitimacy is something we should talk about in terms of not having it." "Democrats understand the importance of bondage between a mother and child." "Welcome to President Clinton, Mrs. Clinton, and my fellow astronauts." "Mars is essentially in the same orbit... Mars is somewhat the same distance from the Sun, which is very important. We have seen pictures where there are canals, we believe, and water. If there is water, that means there is oxygen. If oxygen, that means we can breathe." "What a waste it is to lose one's mind. Or not to have a mind is being very wasteful. How true that is." "People that are really very weird can get into sensitive positions and have tremendous impact on history." "When I have been asked who caused the riots and the killing in L.A., my answer has been direct and simple: Who is to blame for the riots? The rioters are to blame. Who is to blame for the killings? The killers are to blame." "The American people would not want to know of any misquotes that Al Gore may or may not make." Hillary Clinton: "I'm not going to have some reporters pawing through our papers We are the president." "We must stop thinking of the individual and start thinking about what is best for society. " "That's part of the continuing saga of Whitewater ... the never ending fictional conspiracy that honest-to-goodness reminds me of some people's obsession with UFOs and the Hale-Bopp comet some days. " "The president has denied these allegations on all counts, unequivocally." |
Bush Quotes
Jim:
Al Gore and Hillary are not POTUS. You quoted some of their verbal miscues. Not the same thing as Bush screwing up, since they are not POTUS. You also quoted some mangle-speak by Clinton. All the time he was in office you guys said "He's not fit to be president!" If we're going to apply the same standards, then we should be able to apply the same criticism. GWB's lack of *verbal* IQ (he may be fine in other areas) is an international joke. Clinton had little or no regard for the truth. Bush would be unable to articulate the truth even *if* he understood it. Language is the currency of diplomacy. It really is important for national leaders to be able to speak logically and coherently. Whatever Bush's strong points might be, public speaking shore ain't among 'em, y'all hear? Certain Presidents have been better public speakers than others. IMO, some of the best in the last 50 years have been Clinton, Reagan, and Kennedy. Johnson was fair to middlin', Eisenhower was sincere, Carter was candid, Nixon was always runnin' for his life, and others just managed to be OK. The present Bush is at the bottom of the heap, as far as public speaking goes (IMO). |
Bush Quotes
You missed my point Chuck.
Sure Hillary and Al are not POTUS, but both Al was the VPOTUS and a presidential candidate. Hillary holds high office and is a possible candidate in 2008. Lastly, the quotes I posted from WJC spoke loudly of his credibility (more important than any oral blunders) and illustrated that even a fine public speaker such as himself can slip up with verbal miscues (as you call them). As I said in my post, it happens to the best of them. "Gould 0738" wrote in message ... Jim: Al Gore and Hillary are not POTUS. You quoted some of their verbal miscues.

Says a lot about us "common-folk"...we like people that are like us. Honest, sincere, and likely to mangle words when speaking in public. |

We could have a series of affable village idiots running the country. There shure ain't no shortage of that resource here in the states. What we really need is some means of citing our production of affable idiots to the GDP. By golly we'd be leading the pack by thousands of percentage points and outpace historical growth by hitherto unheard of gains!!! Pretty soon people'd be calling for even less funding for schools. We'd have to look out for the "Idiot Bubble" though. Too much of a good thing could really rattle the Fed. |

Rick There's another period that bears comparison and that's Orwell's 1984 (or, more accurately, England 1948). Bush's presidency will be historically revealed as Karl Rove's Big Brother communications experiment. He's proven the methodology still works as well as ever. One can only hope it's just another outbreak and something will slap us back to consciousness. |
