This Obama is "articulate" used as a slur thing can backfire with a little help,

[billbuckhead]

"w"orst president ever obviously isn't very articulate. Maybe being articulate can now be made a new basic requirement for the job of the "world's most powerful man." Why would we ever give a non articulate leader a chance after this disaster of a president? We can't afford to elect anymore drinking buddies.

1. Wasn't Used As A Slur Though.

Regardless, yes; The president should absolutely have to be articulate.

3. I think they're trying to twist it into being a slur now that Herr Rove is using it

Rove was being dismissive about Obama's depth. Kind of a joke compared to chimpy, but then these people are oblivious to irony. I can see this on the Daily show and Colbert next week.

4. Oh Ok. I Admit My Ignorance To That.

I thought you were referring to Biden. I had no idea Rove had used it lately and since I don't know the context I can't really make a call on it. I take my initial reply back based on false presumption. :)

2. I think he should use it in campaign slogans. wouldn't that be a hoot.

5. Articulate would be nice.

Think about it: We live in a nation of 300 million people and the best we could come up with is a guy who can't formulate a sentence in the English language--his native tongue--unless some else wrote it down for him.
