He's still the President and we put him there. I'm more worried now about who's going to be in there next.steph
im a republican and ill admitt it! i always thought his speaking had changed. but im gonna have to flame responsibly on this because i think you just bashed the president for call him an idiot was it? or was that just my imagination? ill watch the video again, but i just cant justify calling him that regardless if his speaking has changed. i guess im just bothered by how many people bas him so it easily sets me off. but not one of your best videos. i do agree with some of it but most of it got me ... lots moreRion
Truth, most of US's presidents have something wrong with them at some point. Kind of makes it part of the job I think.Mike
Maybe he's just getting the media's goat. Or maybe, that's just how normal people talk. They stutter and fumble over their words. Whatever happened to the notion that self-government meant government by citizens, no elites, in positions of power? (How much have Hillary and Barack spent in their campaign against ... moreCreateSomething » I like this guy

Brian, thanks for writing in. Check out the supporting linked articles and video on our website. They may help with some of the objections you have with our video. but comparing those two clips is pretty much comparing apples and oranges. One was a prepared speech and one was a debate. Both clips are purportedly unscripted speaking in public debates. Public speaking is not a very good way to judge someone's intelligence. Agreed. But if you watch the linked video, there is also footage of a large faut-pas made in a speech by Pres. Bush - a speech where there ... lots moreBryan
I think it's a bit of a stretch to say he could be suffering presenile dementia based on those clips. Not saying he's not but comparing those two clips is pretty much comparing apples and oranges. One was a prepared speech and one was a debate. Public speaking is not a very good way to judge someone's intelligence. There are very smart people who are lousy public speakers and visa versa. It's better to judge a person on his ideas rather than his oratory skills. I don't agree with Bush on a lot of things but I'll give him credit ... lots moreJeff Green
Man, it's a good thing my town board didn't see this show! As for me, I love you more than ever.Ingrid
scott, I like your ideas, hahaha no, I'm going to stay out of this one, what if they track me down and won't let me in when that holiday to california is finally coming up!Scott
The "guy behind the camera" said I could write a post this long. ;-) It is not the first time something like this has happened. Democrats used to mock Reagan about his bad memory. He even joked about it himself. Then it turned out he had Alzheimer's and the jokes stopped. Bush is (or at least was) smarter than Kerry. He got better grades at Yale and took harder classes. On the one hand, no one wants a president with little or no experience (although the Democrats sure seem to this time around). ... lots morecribcat
