Have you actually ever listened to a president's weekly radio address?

[Gothic Sponge]

I've only heard clips on news shows, but never heard a full broadcast. I don't even know what stations around me carry it. Am i alone?

[malmapus]

1. Have yet to catch one myself

Gotta be some AM band that airs them, can't see any of the FM stations around here doing it..

6. i can`t stand to listen to him

he makes me ill

[arwalden]

7. Yes I Have. He Can Barely. Read The Script.

He simply cannot. Read a string. Of words on paper. And make them sound. Like normal speech.

The only thing. I can figure. Is that he reads. Each new line. As if it were. A complete sentence. He does not understand. The concept of word wrap. Nor does he know. What punctuation is.

He's a total idiot.

P.S. Clinton would read volumes and volumes to make certain that he had a good understanding of the issues that faced our country at home and abroad. He would make intelligent and informed decisions. He could speak extemporaneously on just about ANY subject.

Bush* on the other hand can only speak from "prepared" comments (prepared by Condi)... he doesn't write his own speeches... he has a very limited understanding of issues and could not explain it to anyone if he had to... he refuses to read reports and wants his staff to provide a one-page typed synopsis for him that "bottom-lines" it.

It's little wonder that he has no speaking skills or reading skills or comprehension skills... he's such a simpleton. A buffoon.

8. Only on C-Span, not the radio. nt

9. No, and I can't imagine who does. I would have listened to FDR...

had I lived during his time, but then I don't think his addresses were so contrived.

[soothsayer]

10. Yep. We'd catch it on weekends when driving up to the casino

WTOP news. Waiting for traffic. Even my repub-leaning mom would generally mock it.

12. Not since Carter, and only a couple of those. n/t
