That Wacky President of Ours

It's good to see that the POTUS is making use of the "Word of the Day" desk calendar Laura gave him for Christmas. Listening to his press conference this morning I heard him use several polysyllabic words without breaking a sweat.

What was fascinating to me were the phrase-pauses he took so the people with the approved Dick-isms can whisper them into his ear. I'm sure any deviation from the scrip will result in a reduction of cookies for snack and an hour more of afternoon nap time.
