Was he his usual self and simply fucked everything up as usual? Slurred speech, hesitation, a smirk or two? Did he answer questions in a stupid way?

2. 5 threads plus a zillion commentaries.
Evidently terrible, plus he didn't answer ONE question, just blathered on.

3. A stellar performance...
He hit every note like a diva. He was the embodiment of perfection. Bravo, Sir Bush!

7. I agree!
Edited on Tue Apr-13-04 10:02 PM by SeveneightyWhoa
That was absolutely magnificent!
The only parts where he somewhat stumbled were the few instances when the person feeding talkingpoints into Bush's earpiece went for a pee break, leaving Bush propagandaless.

Other than that, sheer perfection! Strong, brave, yet humble!

6. OMG...you missed the performance of a lifetime...

Highlights --

"Turkey Farms and Mustard Gas"
"Brown-skin people"
We now have 2 Secretaries of State


...help me out people, it's all becoming an ugly blur...


It was PRETTY bad.

9. He did well
The polls have Condi as 2-1 favorable and I suspect the same here. We at DU are the 1 but I bet Bush did well among the Independents. Condi was about 61% with them and Clarke was about 33%. The reality is that plain and simple speak sells.

11. Coincidentally, Bush coined a new geographic region: "the Caucus."
Edited on Tue Apr-13-04 10:57 PM by Minstrel Boy
I assume he meant the Caucasus, but you never know.
