All politicians speak so much and so often they are going to make mistakes or make idiot utterances but what gets me both during the election and during his first year was how much of the media played cheer leader for him like a bunch of love struck teen aged girls rather than doing the something that used to be called journalism. The best journalists are not fooled by eloquence because they love language and seek to make it serve truth and meaning.
Most of the speeches he gave during the campaign were eloquent sounding hallmark cards with very little substance and the media just swooned.
In a way Obama is now suffering from that love affair, the media created unrealistic expectations of him and now he has fallen to earth and had to govern, make real decisions and not just say inspiring sweet nothings.
Remember How Stupid Bush Was?
Remember How Stupid Bush Was?
Yes.
Depending on what his real agenda was, he's either stupid, or he's stupid like a fox.
Since I cannot read minds, I really don't know which he is.
I suspect the latter, though, FWIW.
Im sure we will simply see a bunch of gaffes by President Bush posted up next.
Fact is people make mistakes in what they say. So you can't speak, that doesn't make you stupid. Some of the smartest men in the world cant speak. Stephen Hawking for one.
We should be looking at their character, the effect of their policies, and their leadership skills.
Bush had some issues. Obama has more. in both cases, we seem to be getting screwed.

By all means let us not look at gaffes and misspeaks. Let us turn our attention to simply fundamental lies. This is is very long but then it is no longer than the lies themselves. It is distressing that a list this long, on one subject, can be compiled in only eight years.
