Georgie's Big Geography Lesson
From the transcript of the Big Happy War Anniversary Speech this morning:
In recent years, terrorists have struck from Spain, to Russia, to Israel, to East Africa, to Morocco, to the Philippines, and to America. They've targeted Arab states such as Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Yemen. They have attacked Muslims in Indonesia, Turkey, Pakistan, Iraq, and Afghanistan. [...]
...countries like the United States, or Germany, or Pakistan, or Saudi Arabia, or Thailand. We are taking the fight to al Qaeda allies, such as Ansar-al-Islam in Iraq, Jemaah Islamiya in Indonesia, and Southeast Asia.
[...]
America and the nations of Australia, and France, and Germany, and Italy, and Japan, and the Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Spain, the United Kingdom, Canada, Singapore, and Norway...
[...]
sons and daughters of Australia, Bulgaria, Canada, Denmark, Estonia, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Spain, Switzerland, Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, the United Kingdom, and the United States.
It was reported that the speech ran about 22 minutes. If you take out the above, it probably would have weighed at about 10. He was readin' slooooow.

It's like a grade school student padding a paper to reach the 500 word minimum.

Bush has an IQ of a cucumber.

Isn't this the same genius who once said that Nairobi is the capital of Africa?
Bush has an IQ of a cucumber, Thom? You think too highly of Dear Leader.

Why does Thom hate cucumbers?
And why does Bushco hate Micronesia, whose sons and daughters were omitted from this list?
Perhaps it was to give him room to list both "America" (item no. 1) and "The United States" (item last) just to rub it in.
Plus, that makes the list sound longer and more alphabeticalizerly.
