Speaking well is especially useful for telling lies, propagandising and charming, teleprompted or naturally.
What has a Pakistani, Afghani movement got to do with America?I'm sure I was talking about the Khudai Khidmatgar (KK) movement, and not the KKK. It was an intrinsically perverse statement about Obama being of non-white extraction - indeed, an American "Indian".
Given that, your responses were are bit testy.
Try not to read too much into what isn't actually there: I don't make many gaffes.
Bush spoke with conviction.
Ah, but he had God telling him what to do.Bush spoke with conviction.
My comments were about bush talking with conviction, not grammatical perfection and elocution. But I am sure he would be able to write correctly the difference between your and you're.Aw your just stirring Snake. Bush could hardly talk at all!!
What an ignorant statement. In fact, Nashville voted for Obama - the rest of Tennessee didn't. It is funny how any criticism of Obama invokes a charge or implication of racism. Surely I'm not just against him because I don't believe in his policies, right?
I am in an interracial marriage myself, with interracial children. However, we don't think of it that way. We consider everyone equal. The only time race enters our thoughts (I'm talking about me and my family), is when a left winger brings up the subject.
At some point, the world needs to look at people for who they are, not what color their skin is. That is how I live my life.
I don't understand some people e.g snake, what is your problem with obama? The man is doing a good job so far considering the mess left for him to clean up. Why are people having a go at his speaking ability? It's just a joke.

Doris --
During the election, you stepped up and made calls to potential supporters around the country. Your efforts built this movement from the ground up and elected a President.
But as President Obama said, that victory alone was not the change we seek, only the chance to make that change. I need you to take that leadership role once again.
We've asked supporters across the country to call their elected leaders in Washington and declare their support for President Obama's budget plan. The biggest way you can make an impact now is by calling supporters and reminding them to take that step and call their representatives.
We'll provide you with a script and a targeted list of people to call.
We can't afford to ignore the long-term challenges to our prosperity any longer. Addressing our challenges in energy, health care, and education is essential to achieving an economic recovery that lasts.
As Congress nears a vote on President Obama's budget next week, it's absolutely crucial that citizens make their voices heard and send that message to Washington.
Log on now and ask fellow supporters to contact their representatives:

You will be calling supporters across the country to ask them to call their members of Congress and express their support for President Obama's budget before the vote.
We will give you the names and phone numbers of each person's members of Congress so you can provide that information.
Hello, is _______ there?
Hi, _________, my name is [YOUR NAME] and I’m a volunteer leader with Organizing for America. I’m calling to spread the word about and build support for President Obama’s plan to create jobs and renew and strengthen our economy. In the midst of these tough economic times, our country's success depends on people like you joining with President Obama to get America back on track.
I'm asking you to join President Obama and pledge your support for his proposed budget priorities, which will make America energy independent, health care more affordable, and education stronger for our children.
Will you pledge to support President Obama’s budget priorities and plan to rebuild the American economy? We will deliver a list of everyone who pledges their support to members of Congress.
If 'Yes. I will pledge my support.' is selected, then go to Yes to pledge. Will you call your members of Congress?

Yes to pledge. Will you call your members of Congress?
Great! The vote on the budget in Congress is coming up very soon and President Obama needs your help to let Congress know that the American people support this plan to renew the economy by investing in energy, health care, and education.
I have the names and phone numbers for your members of Congress right here. Do you think you could give them a call and let them know you support President Obama's budget and ask them to support it in the upcoming vote?
Give the names and phone numbers for their members of Congress, provided right below the callers name.
If 'Yes - I will call my Congress members' is selected, then go to Yes - I will call my members of Congress
If 'No - I can't call my Congress members ' is selected, then go to No - I won't call my members of Congress

Thanks again and have a great day/night.

I haven't seen this doco, but I have seen many of his other ones. Have you noticed how virtually all of his sources are internet based? i.e those clippings that come up onto the screen are always screenshots of websites.
