W. FACES A “TOUCH CROWD” —————- by Steve Nadis
Our president interrupted his record-breaking vacation to defend the war in Iraq to the toughest audience he ever faced–15,000 VFW members in Salt Lake City, many of whom were so old they had no idea Bush had ever left his ranch in Crawford, Texas. El Presidente could have saved himself the trip and made the same case to Cindy Sheehan, who has camped outside his ranch for weeks, but he probably knew the argument would never fly, especially to a mother whose son had died fighting Bush’s war. Better to save the platitudes for a sympathetic, if doddering, crowd that had no idea what he was saying but could still clap on command. Which he did. A smart move for a guy whose mental acuity is constantly being challenged.

If W developed Alzheimer’s, how would anyone know? Shit, shoulda saved that one for my blog!
I won’t hold it against you if you steal it back.
Hey, nobody knew Reagan had Alzheimer’s, and he was 20 years old than W. So I think the real point is, "Does the public notice if ANY of America’s Presidents have Alzheimer’s?"
i love your blog, will keep looking you blog every day.
