Bush surprised numerous reporters when he told them he quit reading their papers or listening to their analysis. Makes sense to me too. He's the one making the news and already knows what he means. He does not need these idiots explaining it to him.

It would be great if Bush were as eloquent as Blair, but he's not. I agree with other posts. Judge Bush by his actions, not his speaking abilities. For those, we can all just get a good laugh from them. He's simply "misunderestimated."

GWB communicates with people IMHO far better than Blair. I love the way he can talk to small children and older people so naturally also the military.

Tony Blair cannot do with with normal everyday people but he can handle the press better.

Actions speak louder than words and GWB wins that hands down.
