No, not really. While the typical top-poster is clueless and stupid and
you seem eager to describe yourself in those terms I would say that you
are better described as lazy, inconsiderate and pertinacious.

yup...excellent. and you haven't even met rachel yet. she agrees,
except for that pertinacious thing...she was unsure of its meaning
initially, but once i read the definition to her, she said, and i quote:
"damn, he nailed your ass."

btw...is bush's tie vibrating on anybody else's tv screen... talk
about a pertinacious prick.

actually, i agree i'm stupid and clueless, perhaps lazy, rarely
inconsiderate, definitely pertinacious. your scale of lazy and
inconsiderate is very different than mine...but, it does make for
interesting reading...

He was as scary tonight as I've ever seen him. He is obviously distraught,
disoriented and fearful. Poor thing, he means well, and I truly believe
that, but he is in WAY over his head and he's finally beginning to realize
it. When the Commander in Chief is discombobulated, be afraid.

Fox News thought he did great. :-)

I didn't watch the press conference because I can't bear to listen to
him, much less watch him. I did read the text on the Web.

He doesn't mean well for the country as a whole. He means well for the
plutocracy he represents. He's an evil liar.

I never felt sorry for his father, as I thought he was a conniving CIA
head type even as president, but I credited him with intelligence, if
not with any understanding of Americans who earn less than $200,000 to
$2,000,000 a year. The past couple of years, my sympathy for him has
increased enormously. What must it be like to produce a child so
publicly ignorant? So dedicated to continuing in paths proven to lead
to further destruction? I'd bet he sometimes sits around the house
with Barbara and says, "Damn, why didn't we just give that boy all the
cocaine his nose could stand and lock him in his room?"

When he made a couple of slips of the tongue within the first minute
of his *prepared* *speech*, I knew it was going to get ugly. I've
always felt that he knows he's in over his head. It's as if he went to
sleep as a rich little frat boy and woke up to find himself as the prez
of the fricking uninety states.

It's obvious that he enjoys playing the prez (especially when you
get to dress up in a fighter pilot's suit), but when it comes to
actually making decisions or having to stray from his script, he's
totally lost. And after his "performance" last night, I can't imagine
anyone doesn't know who's really running the country (i.e., Daddy's
henchmen).

I wish I had been keeping a tally of the number of times he repeated
the same mantras when asked a question ("historic opportunity" ... "It's
hard ... hard ... not easy" ... "no longer hope that oceans protect us
from harm" ... "he was a threat ... threat" ... "war footing ... war
footing ... war footing" ... "console the family members who have lost
their life" ... "make America more secure ... the world more free ...
the world more peaceful", etc.) And the way he dissembled and started
to ramble whenever there was a reasonably tough question.

It was truly pitiful, and I am genuinely curious how people from
other countries view us when they see him representing us.

Of course, now we should keep an eye out for the spinmeisters on the
right to see how they are going to make him out to be "presidential".

My favorite was "Mustard gas at the turkey farm." I can't believe he's
still holding on to this WMD pipe dream. It makes him look crazy.

From what I've heard, it sounds like barley stew night at Penns.
