Sign Language
I just saw a video of Jebbie talking to the people of Florida about Rita. He is very PC with a woman doing sign language simultaneously. Can you imagine someone trying to translate what the shrub says in sign language How do you translate peeance and freeance??? lol!

1. Hopefully it gets spelled out so the deaf can be as confused as
the rest of us.

3. I thought that same thing yesterday when I saw that speech!
The signer was having enough trouble with John Ellis: he stammers a lot.

Wouldn't it be funny to watch Gee Dubya's signer?

5.  I can imagine all the confused looks he'd get from the signer,
and there is no way that they could have the camera watching someone respond to what he says as he says it. Oh, but I would love to see it!!!

4. I was watching a sign language person on a preKatrina news report
When things were threatening to be as bad as they turned out to be.

I was waiting for her to do a mime thing of bending over and "kiss yer ass goodbye"

6. I think that would be quite easy, in fact.
Just keep signing "we're makin' progress" over and over.
