Did you ever notice...
...that when Bush is speaking at some rally, he comes off like a sweating, drunken third-rate televangelist ?

1. Thinking does that to you when you have an undersized brain.
Or are on coke.

3. yes, I have noticed
Another thing is that he's bending over when he talks, even when there's no podium. Very odd. Watch for it.

5. He bends over, looks at the audience with a half-smirk,
puffs himself up, and waits until he hears applause. Under normal circumstances (an audience of pre-approved Bush supporters), they applaud, he completes the smirk and moves on to the next sentence. It drives me crazy!

He didn't have a clue how to handle himself when hardly anyone applauded during Friday's speech.

6. He's a dry drunk
He doesn't like to be pressed for answers, either.
He's quite possibly the worst speaking president of all time...

7. There have been some honest reporting notes hidden deep in
some articles....articles that are trying to put the wingnut spin on bush's campaign. There might be ONE or two sentences that mention how the crowd doesn't seem very excited, or the applause was "polite"... it's happened on a few of the articles linked to threads here lately.

Pretty amusing that editors are letting those short remarks stay in the articles, given Rove's grip on the media.
