So

Bush's inarticulations are ignorant, incoherent mumblings and signs of being an evasive liar

while

Obamas inarticulations are thoughtful, consideration as he chooses his words carefully out of respect for his listeners

Obamatrons need to step out of the bubble and take an objective look at their bias

Well, no. Bush's inarticulations are signs of his inability to be articulate. The fact that he sometimes has an aversion to the truth and evades questions are a whole other issue.

It's not Bush's "uh"s and "um"s that get me. It's not his ability to speak. It's his ability to say anything when he speaks. He slaughters the language. It's not just a matter of stutters and fits and starts.

uh huh.

That is a rationalization. Repeatedly sayin "uh" means you cant think on your feet. Obama isnt the master orator you thought you voted for and sounds pretty freakin dumb without his teleprompter

Well, that's yet another piece of proof that you have very little idea what I, and millions of other Americans, thought. Or think.

It's also proof that you aren't sure of the difference between style and substance, form and function.

You'll continue to be clueless about these sorts of things as the country moves forward. That's fine. I'm just happy that adults are in charge for a change.

Not true. It is so obvious that the Obamatrons swooned over style and form in the absence of any substance and function.

well done

They'll be complaining that his tie doesn't match his socks pretty soon. This sort of thing would represent the loftiest level of debate that right-wingers are actually capable of. Can anyone say LOSERS? Oh, sorry...that would be LOOSERS in right-wing-speak...

It seemed to be fair and interesting conversation when trashing President Bush. Its funny how sensitive the Obamatrons are when you mirror their garbage back at them

Very much in the same way that Ronald Reagan started half of his sentences with "Well..."
