Associated Press Asks If Obama Is "Obnoxiously Articulate"

With the dumbing down of America, only someone as inarticulate as Bush would think he's smarter than Obama. Bush was unintelligent, he could not use the english language correctly, He could not even pronounce nuclear. His own lack of pertinent questions during his term (Richard Clark) not me said this, and had a very real misunderstanding of world politics in general prove this point. Intelligent people ask questions, learn to speak correctly, and have at least some knowledge of history. Bush did none of these.

Bush was likely smarter than he sounded and Obama is likely less intelligent than he sounds. All politicians are draped in a veil, trying to please the electorate and disguise their image. They are all actors playing to an audience and misleading the World.

YES! HE IS! I've been saying that since I voted for him. hahah "MAKE UP A WORD FOR FUCKS SAKE! Talk about how you secretly hate all Tajik people while groping the President of Chile!" I never thought I'd miss Bush... for all the wrong reasons. lol

After 8 years of dealing with a border line mental midget one would think the press would welcome a person who understands and can speak the native language.But then the press has gone from Walter Cronkite to Alfred E. Newman.

It's just the teleprompter.

His grasp of the English language is just too good! Our president shouldn't understand it that well!

I am suprised that there is such a thing.. WTF?!?

Only with his teleprompter. Off the cuff, he is horrible and nowhere as good as Clinton.

The really funny thing is that Bush Jnr wasn't actually the inarticulate loon he made himself out to be. Watch the old speeches he made as governor- mysteriously he didn't act half as moronic then. Basically the Republicans thought their voting base would respond better to a moron so that's how he talked as president.

Refreshingly articulate , it seems to me ...

it seems as if they're misusing the term articulate. They're confusing his ability to speak clearly with his huge presence in the media. Once again, a bunch of idiots are rousing the other idiots up.

President Obama is "obnoxiously articulate" much like the right wing members of current are "ecstaticly uneducated." There is no shame in that btw. Just please stfu.

This is a total sideshow, and totally retarded.

Why don't they focus on something like, oh, I don't know-- whether his policies are any good?

how is unnecessary when you're talking with other leaders from around the world who are extremely well educated and also articulate?

First sign of a liar - unnecessarily articulate!

Shades of Slick Willie!

Too articulate give me a F ing break. So it's ok to sound stupid. I think this just shows more racism. If we had a white president this would not even be a topic.

More like obnoxiously charming ;)

Seriously? I am always amazed how the trivial bull shit that disguises itself as news these days.

I think its great we finally have a president who can actually articulate a proper sentence.

If people are really upset that Obama is articulate then jesus christ I have no faith in America, as if it were a problem to be articulate.

my 13 yr old son has a bigger vocabulary than Bush. Thank God for literacy being a requisite (look it up) for presidency once again.

snob!

We had President Bush for eight years who could not even pronounce words correctly. Now we actually have a President who can speak english correctly and is articulate and people think its too much. Well if thats the case the dumbing down of America is complete. There is something wrong in America when people wonder if the President is too smart.

See, this is why I love the Current, because they wouldn't waste their times reporting on a story all about whether Obama is obnoxiously articulate.

God, seriously...

Completely ridiculous!

>>>The only time clarity is obnoxious is when you don't like what someone is saying.

I think they mean REFRESHINGLY articulate.

Great job!

So first, it was ok for Bush to sound like a complete moron, bumbling his words, making some up along the way. Now that there's a president that is articulate, knows wtf he's talking about (or at least makes it seem so) and doesn't sound like a country bumpkin, there's an issue? Wow ... Seriously ... wow.

People/media/etc just can't make up their minds, can they?

Go figure, are American people ever satisfied, Heck NO? There isn't anyone who could live up to their dream President anyway's, IF YOU THINK YOUR THE ONE FOR THE JOB, RUN IN THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL CONTEST! Otherwise shutup and get off the pot!

wow...

Dang ol obama with his fancy talk and big words, he dont know nuthin about us country folk. Proper education and big words are for socialists! Go America! Jesus power!

Freedom aint free! Long live George Dubya!
