COLLECTIVE MADNESS


“Soft despotism is a term coined by Alexis de Tocqueville describing the state into which a country overrun by "a network of small complicated rules" might degrade. Soft despotism is different from despotism (also called 'hard despotism') in the sense that it is not obvious to the people."

Has George W. Fallen Off the Wagon?

I am really beginning to get worried.

First, it was that link to Laura Ingraham where twice she played the clip of George W. slurring his words as though he was drunk on his keister. (It's at the end of the clip) Now, the Telegraph is reporting that he has taken ill at the G8 Summit. and they're showing a photo of him apparently drinking beer...

    Is the Ingraham clip the one where her sound guy slowed it down?

    On the show they played it full speed first, and he sounded like good old incompetent George, the guy that's refused to learn how to pronounce "Nukular," then they slowed it down and he sounded REALLY Bad.

    Then again, in Media player, under

    Just about ANY of us sound a bit tipsy at 1/2 speed, even a teetotalin Honest Injun Like Me.
