Dear heart, before YOU write such codswallop to me, you really should know to whom you are replying. LOL

You need to follow your own admonition and GROW UP , before you make said reccomendation to others.

Corrective criticism, made on this forum,"for" the president, especially when it is invalid,false,and worthless,is a waste of bandwidth.

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Yes. But and Left loved it. Their motto: "Tell them lies, tell them sweet little lies..."

[ohioWfan]

REPEAT! He was NOT 'confused and stumbling.'

PLEASE!

[Petronski]

Yes. Can you?

[texasflower]

I'm 100% born and raised in Texas also.

I happen to think we have a very charming accent and I love hearing the President speak.

During one of the Christmas specials, you could hear the President's voice singing along. He sings in a great Texas accent!

[nopardons]

That's old news. LOL

But, as long as they write that stuff over there and I don't see it,it matters not one whit!They drown on their own bile and my life is unchanged and happy. :-)

[Howlin]

Butthead. :-)

"You know we are going to have a terror attack around election time. If America goes soft I will be surprised."

wow, that just freaked me out as I scrolled down to it...I sure hope you are wrong, John Lenin - my point was that we need to remind the population that all other issues beyond security are secondary - jobs, health care - try and find your office or your HMO after the next attack...but your statement was chilling...what do you mean, "if America goes soft you will be surprised"...? Goes soft now?

[nopardons]

ROTFLOL !

[Havoc]

Evidently better than you because I never worked for GM either.

[KC Burke]

Speaking of Lincoln's second election, the heart rending inaugural address from that occasion sends chills down my spine. It closes with:

With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations.

[LizardQueen]

We'll just have to agree to disagree then, because while I thought his speech was fabulous I think he blew a lot of the Q&A period, and I'm not the only one who thinks so.

[Havoc]

Must be a problem with attention span

[Darlin']

"He seemed to be unfocused, lost, unprepared, and drifting on several occasions. Only the blind and deaf, or those with a political agenda could not see it, or would not admit it. "

I don't suppose it occured to you that the problem might have been questions that were either unfocused or unrelated to the issues but pointedly personal and partisan ? Such as, are you ever going to admit you made a mistake ? There is a good answer to that question but I'm certain I'd be banned for saying it.

[nopardons]

What's a "gold clap" ?

[MEG33]

Sounds like you had a good job at EDS..

[TEXOKIE]

THANKS!! I appreciate that!!

[ohioWfan]

Please cite specifically where in the speech or the Q&A he was 'drifting'.......other than in response to the 'biggest mistake' question, which he didn't, nor should have answered.

He was speaking for over an hour, and I was paying quite close attention and only saw him 'drift' once..........and that was in response to a really stupid question which had no answer.

[TEXOKIE]

Thanks ever so much, deport!

[woofie]

I want to know what you think ...all this bellyachin about "delivery" makes no sense to me

As far as I can tell ya want somebody to say something and mean it and Bush does that
