The Senescent Man

I cannot help notice that U S Representative Patrick Kennedy always sounds a lot less polished than the press releases on his web site.

Today I heard him remark on one of the local radio talk shows (and I paraphrase) that "By his poor leadership on the condition of Walter Reed Hospital, President Bush is simply not taking care of those that Bush feels are the heroes of the Iraq War."

In other words, Bush feels these valiant, wounded young soldiers are heroes, but Patrick Kennedy doesn't think they're heroes?

I'm sure that's not what he meant, but boy it's not unusual to see this guy get easily tongue tied.  And the comedians make fun of George Bush!  What they could do with Patrick if they just tuned into him.

He can be such a dolt.
