      A few years back, I remember reading in the WSJ where they were reporting that something like 13% of the public thought congress was doing a good job. The author wanted to know "who are these people?" I wonder now if the percentage thinking they're doing a "good job" would reach double digits.

        Remember when he was mocked for his "Southern accent?"

        He can turn a phrase, though, can't he?

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

              He can actually do demagogue and funny at the same time.

                I saw Daniel Craig (James Bond) in two movies last week where he had a southern accent. It was weird.

                  True fact...Much of the Southern accent is very close to the British accent of the 1700's. Brits usually find the accent pretty easy to do...

                    I can do a pretty good impersonation of Sheriff John W. Pepper if the need arises.
