Now it's "terror", and not "terra".
Funny, how Dubya can address the U.N. in a Kennebunkport, Maine accent, and pronounce the word "terror" properly, without resorting to his phony Texas campaign-trail accent.

But the funniest thing is that he keeps pausing for applause during his speech, and not only does it never come, the camera pans on people like the Russian diplomat who appears to be sleeping through Dubya's dumb platitudinous speech.

4. My wife's watching -
I'm just listening from the computer room.

I don't have the stomach to look at his ugly smirking jaw-jutting face anymore than you do. :)

2. Waiting for Dubya to say
"nuclear" instead of "nucular".

3. He sounded like a deep southie in Wheeling recently
We couldn't believe the thick accent....all words ending in "ing" had the "g" cut off completely and of course, he praised himself lavishly on his "war on terra"

5. Did he say "dudn't" and "idn't" a lot?
He loves to sound holler-fresh on the trail ("My opponent changes with the wind, DUDN'T he? It's better to be decisive, IDN'T it!")
