Obama v. Clinton (As Orator) 2

Obama is a very good speaker.....with a script. Please try to remember his peformances in the primary and presidential debates. When this kid hasn't been scripted, he has tripped, stumbled, and blurted more 'uhs', 'duhs', and 'ahhhhs' than ted Kennedy on a 3 day drunk.
My impression of Clinton is that he's not as good a scripted speaker as the community organizer,
but he's a better 'off the cuff' speaker.
I wish folks would stop kidding themselves that our current President has anything more than somewhat above average intelligence. I was no Clinton fan, but I'd trade Barry for him in a New York second.

Though he's really a liberal Republican, I'd prefer Bill to Barack too.

Even Hillary was a better choice.

But we're talking about who's best qualified to drive the Hell-bound train, aren't we.

jman....my guess is that you are too intelligent to buy into fit's BS.

Where am I? And how did I get in this handbasket?

Fit, your last remark presumes that the Hell-bound train is the only one available, so why not have Mr. Soetoro as it's engineer. The 'train' is politically neutral - it's 'm.o.' is determined by who is operating it.
All kidding aside, I see the comments regarding Michael Jackson; that people are disturbed that so many in the culture are making a big deal of the death of a has been pedophile freak. True, and most of these idiots cast their vote for the empty suit who now occupies the White House.

Now I'm lost...Michael Jackson has what to do with any of this?

ayn commented 142 days ago.
MJ has everything to do with everything. :)

Sorry, I'll clarify: the same culture that deifies a Michael Jackson is the same one that votes a 'nobody' into the White House. It's a shot at how unaccomplished this guy is, but yet people want to carry on serious, weighty conversations about him as if he were someone of great substance. And he's not. I meant this for the guy who cast a 'disagree' vote to my initial review and to others who share his sentiments.

President Obama's triumph was made possible by an emotional response to eight years of misrule by an even emptier suit.
