I promised myself that I wouldn't dwell much more about this. But it's just gnawing at me.

I really am getting sick of seeing President Moron on television. He just aggravates and annoys and grates on me like you wouldn't believe. I flipped on the TV to kill a few minutes this afternoon and it happened to be on CNN, which was airing his homeland security speech. I literally watched 15 seconds of it, then couldn't watch anymore. When he said something about fighting the Forces of Evil and invoked the phrase "let's roll," I quickly turned to Comedy Central before my brains made my arm grab the nearest hammer and start pounding it into my own skull.

The man's got decent public presence. I'll grant you that. He knows how to read pretty well -- that is, if he's actually reading the words off the TelePrompter, they could've made him memorize his speeches by rote and maybe the TelePrompter operator is just scrolling lyrics to Britney Spears songs. But as soon as he's off that crutch of having his speeches written for him, his whole way of speaking changes. It no longer flows evenly (though his speeches sound very preachy in both vocal intonation and material), questions have to be repeated in order for him to be able to give the people sitting behind the curtain time to come up with a good answer to whisper in his earpiece, and he can't say a few words without sputtering or stuttering or saying "uh" or "um."

Say what you will about Bill Clinton. His personal character flaw of not being able to keep his fly zipped was his biggest downfall. But at least Bill was intelligent and it showed in his demeanor, his public appearances and his ability to think on his feet and act on the fly (no pun intended). With Georgie, it's all a big magic trick how things happen. "Abracadabra... look, I made Enron disappear! But let's go after Kenneth Lay instead and decry all that lost 401(k) money! And as an added bonus... poof! I made our budget surplus disappear too!" Great trick, Moron, you somehow managed to bend laws to make the finger point away from your administration. Compared to this, Whitewater was a stream trickling through a woods next to your thundering waterfall.
