Bush the elocutionist


I listened to the Prez's economic speech this morning and was struck by a few things. First, as is often the case with G.W., he was obviously reading someone else's words. He had all the passion of a banana peel and sounded like the aural equivalent of a deer blinded by the headlights.

What made me laugh was when he suggested that we "persecute" the scofflaw short sellers. Now I can humbly admit that I am an expert on persecution and wouldn't want to totally rule it out but we just might want to prosecute a few of these guys as well?
