the president is 'folksy' according to the msnbc talking head lady

[mopaul]

referring to his 'style' in yesterday's 'press conference'

and the banner underneath says 'presidential straight talk'

[Richardo]

1. Gomer Pyle was folksy too

Doesn't mean he's qualified to be President.

Idiots.

[liberal N proud]

4. I was thinking more like Forest Gump

But Forest never hurt nobody!

[efhmc]

6. I would take Gomer anyday. He was bend over backwards honest and

kind and truly patriotic.

[rodeodance]

10. hey Gomer was a good chap--would not hurt a flee (no comparison)

[barbaraann]

2. I think she means Volk-sy.

Just like another well-known fascist leader.

[efhmc]

3. Folksy=a snakeoil peddler

[rodeodance]

12. slick con artists are folksy also--it is what makes them effective!!

[blm]

5. I defy them to define the word "straight" based on Bush's actual answers.

His style fakes straight but his actual evasions are the most crooked in WH history.

[peacetalksforall]

7. Folksy is what you say when you can't say inspirational or clear

headed.

[spanone]

8. Since when is ignorance and dodging 'style'?

NOt to mention the obvious, lying.

[tanyev]

9. Maybe the GOP will nominate Cletus in 08!

Some folk'll never eat a skunk
and then again some folk'll,
like Cletus the Slack-Jawed Yokel!

Most folk'll never lose a toe
but then again some folk'll,
like Cletus the Slack-Jawed Yokel!

[raccoon]

11. Reminds me of a stupid article

I saw in a thread here yesterday. The link was to MSNBC and the author of the story went on and on praising the President.
It was just disgusting synchophantic.

If anybody could point me to it, I'd appreciate it.

What is it with MSNBC these days? Have they become another channel to catapult the Reich's propaganda at us?

[rodeodance]

13. yesterday Msnbc kept saying how 'confident' Jr was. over and over.

[Bouncy Ball]

14. Well, if "folksy" means "can't utter a coherent thought" then I agree.

If "folksy" means "ignorant," then I agree.

But I know "folksy" does not include EVIL, so she needs to throw that in.

[SalmonChantedEvening]

15. It usually takes me 6 or 7 pints

To get that "folksy"


:beer:

[tabasco]

16. Yeah, he's just regular folks.

Always had money he didn't work for. Riding around in yachts and living in mansions. Daddy gave him businesses to ruin. Never worked a day in his life. Just like down home regular folks.

Only a fool believes Bush is folksy or a Christian.

[ProfessorGAC]

20. The Silverspoon Is One Of The Most Galling Things To Me

Never worked for anything and yet acts entitled to his status. It's really quite sickening that he has achieved this office.
The Professor

[sam sarrha]

17. a symptom of brain damage, hes a wet brain alcoholic drug addict moron

[pansypoo53219]

18. yeah, the charm of a

used car salesman.
as one blessed with instant soul 'recogbnition', georgie is pure evil.

[City Lights]

19. Everything about him is fake. Even he admitted he's a media creation.

It turns my stomach when the idiots on the tube claim he's a "straight talker." If that were true, they wouldn't have to translate the crap that dribbles from his pie hole. Have any of members of the press corpse touched on the chimp's definition of "disassemble" yet?

[DemBeans]

21. folksy=appallingly ignorant

What else can they call him? He isn't articulate, he can't master details more complicated than "hit me again, barkeep", he does little more than babble talking points, and he's obviously the dumbest SOB to ever hold public office.

What's left? Folksy.

[Oddly Stevenson]

22. Folksy......

...in the same sense that the kid with the banjo in Deliverance was "folksy."

[Skittles]

23. I know what "folksy" is and there is nothing folksy about that evil f***

I know what media whore means too
