Bush judging Obama?
Today, Bush told Fox News that Barack Obama is impressive, but he has "a long way to go to be President."

George W. Bush judging someone's credentials for President is kind of like Paula Abdul judging a singing contest.

Oh wait, never mind.

1. Bush also called him "articulate"
But then, how would he know anything about that?

President George W. Bush said on Wednesday that Democratic Sen. Barack Obama was an impressive politician but had a "long way to go to be president," as he weighed in on the race for the White House in 2008.

"He hasn't gotten elected yet. He hasn't even gotten the party's nomination. He's an attractive guy. He's articulate," Bush said in an interview with Fox News.

10. I saw the statements
Sorry if I was misunderstood.
I meant that what he said was so astonishing that it was like 'pick a statement, any statement' and you couldn't go wrong.
