Every president speaks from carefully prepared speeches. When you're that powerful, every word has to be right. Much as I like shooting from the hip, I recognize that the President much choose and deliver his words carefully and make sure they mean something. Palin has yet to demonstrate a capacity for similar care and meaning.<br /><br />With Palin, we do indeed get what we see: selfishness, narcissism, and a profound lack of depth or foresight.caheidelbergerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03261598066395322681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15329279.post-8808903606533973052009-07-07T15:43:09.208-06:002009-07-07T15:43:09.208-06:00A President on script.

At least with Palin you get what you see, not a phoney puppet like Obama.<br /><br />Tim HigginsFireBirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15155339581279516096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15329279.post-4494221319020043072009-07-07T11:48:05.042-06:002009-07-07T11:48:05.042-06:00O.K., Tim, even if I accept your claim (I don'...O.K., Tim, even if I accept your claim (I don't, but I enjoy testing others' hypotheses), we still have a President who, on script, makes all sorts of sense, and a soon-to-be-former governor of Alaska who makes no sense, on script or off.

I do find it quite refreshing that a politician can give a speech with out the aid of a teleprompter, and not turn into a bumbling idiot like Obama when he has to answer an unscripted question.<br /><br />Tim HigginsFireBirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15155339581279516096noreply@blogger.com
