Bushisms - An analysis

"I think -- tide turning -- see, as I remember -- I was raised in the desert, but tides kind of -- it's easy to see a tide turn -- did I say those words?" --George W. Bush, asked if the tide was turning in Iraq, Washington, D.C., June 14, 2006

One has to wonder if this guy is on drugs ?
Think i am joking? That wasnt a joke.
How many people would answer the question this way ?

Try it, YOU answer the question, right now.
Here it is....

Sir, do you think the tide is turning in Iraq ?

Now, how many of you, started thinking about if you were born in a desert ?
Its understandable to stuble over words, but whats NOT understandable, is to not think about the question. Clearly, his mind was elsewhere.
I cant get into Bush's mind, but it seems at times, (many times) this guy cant put 2 brain cells together.
Part of it, i think, is that he is used to having things handed to him on a silver platter, and never have had to answer hard questions. I have seen some interviews with him from him running for Governor in Tx, and he seemed to be able have at least a 1/2 way intelligent debate.
I dont think he has ever been an intilectual Einstein, but I think he has gotten much WORSE at answering questions, and at staying focused on a subject for more than 20 seconds.
It seems at times he just gets totally frustrated, and doesnt want to focus, or listen to any reason at all.

Now, its no secret that this guy is a bit sheltered.

Maria Bartiromo:
"I'm curious, have you ever googled anybody? Do you use Google?"
President Bush:
"Occasionally. One of the things I've used on the Google is to pull up maps. It's very interesting to see -- I've forgot the name of the program -- but you get the satellite, and you can -- like, I kinda like to look at the ranch. It remind me of where I wanna be sometimes." --interview with CNBC's Maria Bartiromo, Oct. 24, 2006 (Watch video clip)

Now, not everyone is a blogger, and thats fine, but there are several things i see in this statement that are downright scary!
First, it appears that he actually thinks that you can turn a satelitte in real time, when you ask for a location on a map !
Of course the PROGRAM, is not a program, its a website called google maps,and "the google" speaks for itself.
Not to mention that instead of looking where IRAN is on a map (or something usefull) , he looks at his ranch.

"I hear there's rumors on the Internets that we're going to have a draft." —presidential debate, St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 8, 2004

"We both use Colgate toothpaste." —after a reporter asked what he had in common with British Prime Minister Tony Blair, Camp David, Md., Feb. 23, 2001

So, here Bush cant think of anything in common with Blair. But, it is more than that.
It is that Bush, doesnt take the question as a professional one, he takes it as a personal one.
A deeper meaning still, might be that he is not in touch with the reporter, or the American people, in that he cant seem to answer the question without being fed to him more directly.
If he were asked...
Are your views on Foreign policy inline with that of Mr Blair,
he may have answered it OK.
To me, it appears that he has a LIST of answers that have been written for him, becuase he CANT adlib.
