I'm just Michael Dinowitz. My mis-speaking is something small. I'm not a senator or a presidential candidate (or someone trying to be again). The higher you get in the worlds power structure, the more you have to be careful of what you say.
>Mike, have you ever, in your entire life, misspoke? I have. Thank God >I am not held to what I _said_, but am allowed to try to explain what >I _meant to say_. > >The words he spoke, in the context he spoke them, can just as easily >(in my mind, more easily), apply to the President (who was the topic >of the previous sentences, and the following sentences). If you also >take into account the prepared notes he was reading from, and his >history of statements since he has been an elected official, it >becomes pretty obvious he was not talking about the troops, but trying >to insult the President. He has not been very supportive of our troops in the past, but I'll let that one go rather than bring up his congressional statements. >On the other hand, if you want to believe he is lying about what he >was trying to say, his writers are lying about what they wrote for him >to say, that , that in the middle of a tirade about the how bad the >President is he would pass up the chance to insult the President by >insulting the troops, and that he slipped up with a "freudian slip", >then you are free to believe that. I don't think he's lying about what he wanted to say or prepared to say but when he made the mistake he should have come right out and said he misspoke rather than saying "whoops, it was a joke gone wrong". Again, the words used. >But, I submit, your believing he said that says more about you and >your heart than him and his heart. In my heart I believe he's a man of political power and should both be more careful with his words and should own up to them immediately. In my heart I believe his heart is still set on being president and is not looking to support his party above his own aspirations. As many have said, the elections are the democrats to lose. At such a time, conservatism in public statements is of utmost importance. >I on the other hand, believe he is a horrible public speaker, that he >gets panicked when speaking to a crowd, and that he is such a nerd he >cannot even read a joke correctly. And this is a man who should be president? We should go from Bush to this? I'd make a better president than this guy and I'm not even a politician. > >On 11/5/06, Michael Dinowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:219597 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
