I'm too lazy, but long story short, he kept saying sovereign and made up a word.

That just didn't look good.....at all.
And there is no possible way that could be spun so that it looked anything other than as bad as it was.
The above transcript doesn't sufficiently express the numerous uncomfortable pauses and Homer Simpson brain mechanisms involved in getting out that sentence.

LMAO! Is that people laughing at him hysterically in the background?
IIRC, someone named Fjord continues to identify how Bush is ad-libbing. As if, therefore, we should excuse the fact that he constantly makes a complete ass out of himself.xabre said:
Haha, yes. I turned the volume up after you mentioned that and you can hear lots of people laughing during his pauses. That is so fucking funny.Ninja Scooter said:

How long, O Lord, how long will we be subjected to this half bright, language mangling mean spirited rich kid running these barely United States of America? Will it actually be FOUR MORE YEARS? For the love of God. The man is just not acceptable to run a Denny's much less the Entire Free World.

I have to admit, even though I'm voting for that guy (so far), I think that he's an absolutely horrible public speaker. You can tell that just about each and every time there's a camera on him, he's as nervous as a nerdy kid asking a cheerleader out.

Haha... that reminds me of high school or something. Kid gets called on, has no fucking clue what the question is about, but tries to spin some bullshit answer anyway. Everybody laughs.

-hahahaha that is funny as hell, and i agree, the president SHOULD know this kind of stuff. the fact the he doesn't (or it strongly seems that way) and even further that he plays it off as he does, makes me feel apprehensive and almost ashamed about him as our leader.

That clip had nothing to do with public speaking. Bush simply had no idea how to answer the question. Instead of asking for clarification or a dictionary so he could determine what "sovereign" meant, he just made up a completely bullshit answer.
There really are no words for that pathetic display of feigning intelligence. I nearly bust a gut when the crowd started to laugh and then you see Dubya sorta halfway turn to the audience thinking, "fuck, are they laughing at me...?"
Brings back memories of being at the chalkboard in middle school and fucking up an answer.

he said soveriegn entities not soveriengnentity.
Regardless, if you don't know the answer to the question, don't try to answer it. Instead you just end up looking stupid. Have the balls to just say that you don't know too much about it but if there is something that needs to be resolved or discussed, the door is always open to the first people of this great nation.

I would think that partly the reason why the position of presidency has respect is because of the qualification of the person holding it. If anything, I think he's leaving people no other option but to associate the presidency with the sort of ineptitude he presents on a daily basis.

"I expected something like that...however, respect for a high office is not contingent upon the behaviour of the individual occupying it."
That is absolutely ridiculous. Noone deserves blind respect no matter what they do.
