Bush's speaks plainly. Real American loves this. The English; however, are known for much more elequent speech. Hell, it is there language and Churchill was the greatest leader of WWII.

Being no Rhodes scholar myself, I have nothing against plain talk--and you're right, it's a little unfair to expect Bush to be Winston Churchill. But my point is--and tripod and others have said this well enough--is that "Bring It On" doesn't become a leader who is not on the battlefield. Only soldiers who are in the line of fire have the right to taunt their enemies in that kind of fashion (again, I speak as a non-combatant, so flame at will if this is a poor assumption). What happens if a Mogadishu-type disaster happens on our troops? It is the soldiers who suffer the casualties. Bush and the other bureaucrats will just suffer political fallout and foot-in-mouth disease.
