i really miss having a president who is able to articulate ideas, policy, and compassion without a translator.
even reagan, whom i disagreed with frequently, was able to communicate with the world when something happened or he decided to do something.
this recurring firestorm of ridicule, misunderstanding, and then damage control by the whitehouse is embarassing to me as an american. i can only imagine what it must be like for the people who actually support him.
