From a recent “Scarborough Country” column on MSNBC.com:

Has anyone considered keeping the President away from the press altogether if he is no longer up to the task of answering questions?

I’m serious.

If George Bush has lost his ability to give a commanding presser …

Lost his ability? Lost his ability?

It would seem that, having at long last taken off the special glasses that he has been obediently wearing at the behest of the authorities for the last six years, Mr. Scarborough now laments that the Emerald City has lost its old greenness.
