Bush rarely had to even refer to his notes when speaking. And he often spoke extemporaneously.
Thanks for the belly laugh. It's been a long day and I really needed it.

AAAAAHHahahahahahhahahaha....haha....AHAHAHHAHAHAH AHA
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHhahah.... ha.

Something tells me there will not be best selling books and calendars produced about the linguistic mishaps (to put it nicely) of Mr. Obama.

Between this and claiming that Bush was a good president, I'm sorry but we are going to have to revoke your credibility. No matter your ideology, you've overspent your limit. Even professional historians place him 36th out of 43.

Seriously, try to get beyond your partisan rage and the fact that we have a president implementing a different philosophy than you would. You'll see we have a pretty darn intelligent and politically savvy captain at the healm who understands the complexity of the world and the necessity for complex solutions.

I'm seeing a sad reality that the Republican posters are not only feeble in the smarts department but willing to twist the truth in order to deal with their own significant self-doubt. A few years in college would do wonders for these cerebral lightweights

I'm new to these forums, so forgive me if I missed some inside joke, but why demean a person because they work a farm? Did you eat today, or maybe yesterday, or plan to eat tomorrow?

Yeah - dissing on people living on a farm is really below the belt.

Your dinner wasn't manufactured in Safeway factories.

Farming is an incredibly difficult profession that deserves our utmost respect, even though it doesn't always get it.

So, thank you Wapasha, for doing what you do.

The amount of good that President Obama has created is just remarkable
I was just talking about this with a friend last night. In just three months.... so glad I am around to witness this. I see limitless possibilities world wide among all faiths. They speak what so many feel and are so genuine. Let's hear it for community organizing! The world community.

LOL- thanks for the laugh. It's obvious to anyone who has heard him speak that he spoke extemporaneously. "Is our children learning?"

On the heels of his negotiations at the G-20 economic summit - where he negotiated a way out of a potential logjam spurred by a heated debate between France and China over tax havens - President Obama exercised his negotiating skills once again on this overseas trip, this time at the NATO Summit.
This time the debate was over whether Danish Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen should become the next secretary general of NATO.


President Obama Exercises Diplomacy, Helps Avert Mess (Again) - Political Punch
The Great Appeaser is more like it.

All happ knows to do is criticize and call names. Very seldom does he / she make an intelligent post or prove a point.

Go ahead happ and respond to prove my point.
