“The press is killing him because he forgot his debate notes....?”
Isn’t that kind of like a soldier going into battle and forgetting his rifle?
I’m sorry, but this guy isn’t ready to be President. I’m still trying to figure out how he became governor.
“Isn’t that kind of like a soldier going into battle and forgetting his rifle?”
No it is not the same.
Bush II took 4 years as President to learn to speak in public. It doesn’t matter. It is not the determining factor in being a leader. (It is a helpful tool.)
Perry’s stumbling is getting too much play. If smooth talking is the criteria for a President then give the job to Jay Leno. Granted, Perry blotted out on TV, and guess what, Dan Quayle spelled a word wrong. This is all exaggerated.
Perry’s hole he has dug is more of a comment on soundbite society than it is on the criteria of leadership.
I am not advocating for Perry, but I am not dismissing him for these fumbles.
I point out that the press is hypocritical in attacking Perry but leaving Obama alone, with a teleprompter with 7 year olds.
