Ask President Bush

Why was Bush so unprepared for the debate last Thursday? The answer is simple: He doen’t answer questions. He has been shielded from all criticism and he isn’t used to pressing questions. Even his “Ask President Bush” sessions on the campaign trail are all items of praise. And he avoids press conferences at all cost. So when he finally was asked a meaningful question at the debate, he choked.

Here is the latest example of an Ask President Bush session (oh the things we learn from our leader):

“Q Mr. President, first, we just want to tell you that we pray for you every night as our President.

“THE PRESIDENT: Thank you, sir. (Applause.)

“Q We thank God that we live in a representative republic and we’re able to home-school our children, and the fact that we’re sharing with Leon Moseley (phonetic) the other night at the Christian Coalition dinner what we’re teaching our children about a representative republic, and he said maybe my little seven-year-old should come down here and share it with you. Can you tell the President what Noah Webster (phonetic) said about our republic?

“SEVEN-YEAR-OLD: It would do our system well to learn at an early age that the correct principles of our republic is the holy Bible, the New Testament, and Christianity. (Applause.)”
