 His press corps is bigger than mine. And we both have trouble answering questions in English.

Now the end is in sight I think we can expect more of this kind of stuff from Bush, he does actually have a sense of humour.

Iraq and Afghanistan are no joke however.

in English because he's been studying English by watching movies like Cliffhanger and Lethal Weapon.

And Bush is having trouble answering questions in English because, heck, Americans don't speak English, they speak American!

Bush has trouble answering questions in English because he is an idiot.

Bush rightfully has never claimed any sense of eloquence. His style is folksy and straight. Nice to see Sox being honored. They are the team in 08 again to challenge.
 
I didn't know folksy and straight

is another way of saying "tounge tied butcher of the American language."

Will Rogers was folksy and straight. Regan was "the great communicator."

Does that make Bush the "idiot decider?"

No, but that post definitely lowers the level of discussion.

Look at the wit in the comment above, and compare it with some of the comments below.
Now, honestly, who is the idiot?

Bush has always had great sense of humour, he made the world laugh whenver his speeches were shown outside the US, hell he is my favourite stand up comedian beating off Chris Rock without a sweat. Too bad he is a war criminal though, as Blue_Monday says, Afganistan was no joke.

Haha! This is why I like Bush, he has such a sense of humor - unlike so many politicians who behave like they have a stick stuck somewhere the sun don't shine...

Bush is a funny, warm guy.

I think Babe Ruth's quote is more apt. To paraphrase: Matsuzaka gets paid more than the president because he performs better.

Bush may not be a comedian, but he sure does a good rendition.
