IMO, GWB is MUCH better a speaker off the cuff, than Obama ever thought of being....

That's further than I'll go; GWB has always been a strikingly inarticulate politician. He's had some good press conferences, but lots of bad ones as well. But I don't remember him ever sounding as bad as Obama did in Jordan. If he had, he would have been mocked mercilessly for weeks; Obama has been universally hailed as "good" and "eloquent".

Rush was very funny about it. Wouldn't you love to hear what Bill and Hillary said to each other after watching that press conference?

Obama is best when he's stammering. He didn't stammer when he said the Senate Banking Committee was his committee. He didn't stammer when he said "I would" to the question about committing to personal summits with leaders of a half dozen rogue leaders in his first year in office. His worst gaffes are clearly spoken.
