Let me know how it goes, I cannot listen to Shrub. Its like fingernails on a chalkboard. I trust I'll get a full accounting from y'all. Meantime, pizza, beer, and season 2 of Dexter.
My wife feels the same way. Watching Bush speak, she has the maternal urge to help him, as if he's got a disability, or speech defect, watching him try to communicate makes her feel anxious.
She watched a Bill Clinton appearance with me last night, and marveled at his ease with language, intelligence, and clarity. He was in good form, too, unlike his primary campaign temperamental outbursts, he was relaxed, detached, comfortable, insightful. The contrast was so stark, it was exhilarating. Then, depressing.
