him "A's." I'm sure this is an average of total responses.

something completely idiotic like that. Of course to be a black man who votes Republican you have to be pretty seriously delusional anyway.

31. It's his rove training wheels
JC is learning the fine rovian art of telling the biggest, bold-faced lie when your audience KNOWS that you are lying, and saying it with such conviction that sheeple will begin to believe you. Pure evil.

20. He said we should have civil discourse. Which is true.
Any president should call for civil discourse. But for him to call for it is the height of hypocrisy. No matter what he said tonight, it would be straight F's from me. It doesn't matter whether I saw it or not.

I have te believe he failed in the speech. CNN has a lot of viewers all over the board and if this poll is even partly in the ball park, Shrub failed AGAIN!

28. Done!

Social issues Economy National security Foreign affairs

Paul Begala
Democratic strategist The president called for a new initiative on "competitiveness." But tomorrow, the House GOP is planning to vote to cut student loans, which is one important way that young people who don't have Mr. Bush's family name and family wealth use to compete in the economy. Four words: more of the same. More tax cuts for the rich, more debt owed to Chinese communist bankers. It is President Bush who's trapped in a pre-9/11 mindset. A pre-9/11 mindset sees the enemy as a large country we must invade and occupy. A post-9/11 mindset targets stateless terror networks like al Qaeda rather than invading Iraq.

He said Iran shouldn't be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon. But he didn't give us any specifics. The French -- who reminded the Iranians this week that France already has the nuke and could use it against Iran -- are now more muscular than Mr. Bush.

JC Watts
Republican strategist He addressed the issues without abandoning his values -- creating a culture of life, in terms of abortion, stem cells. I would've liked to have seen some preventive measures on health care … like rewarding people who are healthy, which saves the country tremendous amounts of money in the long term. Tonight, he framed the agenda. Our economy is clicking on all cylinders. But it won't make a difference in Washington. He's got to get out and tout the positives … get into the heartland. The president is also very much in his element in national security. The same traits and appeal that work for him on foreign affairs apply here. That's the president's strength. The American people are very confident with the president in that area.

Hey, 4F? Isn't that the same rating the Army give those who are un-fit for the Army? Now that's irony.

D



for DOPE, DUNCE, DOUCHE BAG, DUNDERHEAD, DONE. I respect where my dog shits more than his speeches anymore. At least I can wipe the shit off my shoe. His speeches last forever circling in cyberspace, repeated as brilliant by bulbs that do not glow brightly in the dark.

I am glad I didn't watch. My TV survived another day to emit pleasant images again.

35. Too funny: 44,412 votes with average grade of D
Personally, I gave him an F in all categories, but I'll take a D as being sufficiently lower than a Gentleman's C that it might get his attention for two seconds. Psst! Georgie! We don't like you!

Worst. President. Ever.
