Cut the bull***. Do I need to give you examples, for the 1000th
time?
If
your kids made the kinds of grammatical mistakes he does, you'd be
bitching
about the job your school was doing. Not visiting the teachers or
doing
anything to help the kids, but just bitching.

Why does it bother you so much?

For the same reason it would bother any normal adult who heard their
kids
speaking that way: Something's wrong. Very wrong.

A young friend of mine taught a research methods course for college
seniors.
10% of the students wrote their final paper using language that
literally
made some of the content unintelligible. They flunked the course. A
couple
didn't graduate because of this, and had to do remedial work over the
summer
in order to get their degrees. It was obvious that they'd somehow
gotten
past high school without being able to communicate. This is a crime.

When the president exhibits the same behavior, it is a problem. There
is
no
debating this fact.

I believe you are exaggerating because he is 1. A Republican 2. He
beat up on your favorite Gore/Kerry.

Why don't you just get over it.

BTW, I've heard Bush make some minor errors while speaking and I've
heard him deliver a speech perfectly. I'm not someone who is that
critical of someone else.

Do you consider yourself perfect?

Dbu, GWB isn't just any ol' guy off the streets, he is the *president* of
the USA. He's in the spotlight, worldwide, representing our country.
He
makes errors which go beyond minor, which change - or obliterate - the
meaning of the sentences in which they occur, errors which sound
ludicrous,
and which are out & out embarrassing. Under his watch the education act
has
been ratcheted up with NCLB, but he appears to be in need of being
educated
re: some of those higher standards himself, esp. in the ELA dep't!

Cathy

Yes he is the President and will continue to be the president for some
time, thankfully.

I've seen him make some flawless speeches. You only look for errors in
his speaking, that's petty stuff. Kerry has made a few flubs as well as
Gore. You don't like Bush, fine. He won't be running again. Instead
you should focus on the people who may be the next president.

Where do you see Bush making speeches? Evening news perhaps. I've
watched entire speeches on C-SPAN, uninterruped and unedited.

All of this talk about Bush and his public speaking is fixation. That's
not mentally healthy for you.

Sounds like what someone in denial would say. Unrelenting denial flying in
the face of reality is not mentally healthy either.
