George Bush - Comedian?

Many politicians, any public speaker really, have a few stock pieces of material that they can use when making an appearance.

You may recall how much grief Senator John Kerry got from some on the right for his use of material tailored to he audience.

This piece looks at the comedic skills of our current Headliner-in-Chief. In part it reads, "Those that can't understand exactly why President George W. Bush is so popular with Independents and Republicans can just look at his self-deprecating humor displayed during his appearance at the Gridiron Club's 120th annual dinner. The president can definitely deliver one-liners, even when they are at his own expense."

Kathe, who is responsible for coordinating the bookings around here, has a number of 8x10 photos on the wall in her office. One of those photos is of Donald Rumsfeld.

I'd take it if she could book either one.
