I caught the W speech this morning mid-speech. Good grief I have been to Presbyterian funerals with more going on than that.

Repeatedly W delivered lines that KILL in front of hand selected audiences and the ones not in front of Congress too. Nothing nada nerts.

I didn't need anyone to tell me what I just didn't hear so I muted the box.

Hell, if he spoke to NON handpicked audiences in most of Murka, he would get silence if not boos.
