Anybody notice Bush's "live" speech skipping?
Like a scratched CD. On the word "campaign" and another time.

Washington, so now he's fucking up words.

18. Uh uhhhhhhhhh
Given what I saw that big bitch emit tonight, there was at least one noctural emission taking place in Washington tonight.

7. On CSPAN, they had a "copy" of the speech before hand as well.

And they broke in on the speech while Bush was in mid-sentence. "Live" my ass.

3. The only thing I hear skipping...
is his voice, because he's stuttering.

Then again, I'm watching Fox.

8. Yes at least twice
We were watching CSPAN on DirecTV.

10. hm.........
lends credence to the rumour that his speech skills are deteriorating and that the speeches are being edited for showing on television, at least in the US......

13. On the train to DC, I was told by an expat that the speeches are
edited in the US. Apparently, everyone in Europe knows that.
