One of the very few good things I can think of about Obama was his speaking ability. I thought that would be one plus among the zillions of negatives. However, I was shocked at his speaking ability today. He is a major league stutterer. Does he have some sort of medical issue that causes it or is he struggling to come up with answers that won't sound foolish. I know he did a lot of that during the election season, but I figured he was desperately trying to avoid a mistake. But here he is doing the same thing. I don't think I can go for years listening to that.

Wow. I didn't know the shallowness was filled with such hollowness.
Let us all know if you are 100% on point after 21 months of straight campaigning for the Presidency.
With friends like you....

He's learning the ropes and measuring his words. You must be used to the previous village idiot who often spoke before thinking or put his foot in his mouth when he did. "Where dreams take wing." or 'Rarely is the question asked, is our children learning."

Hesitation and comtemplation is not stuttering. Come on, get with it.

Please give us web links to prior postings you made criticizing Bush's speaking ability...

If you can't (which we all know you can't) - it totally invalidates this thread...

You're nothing but a pathetic Obama hater...
