From the Washington Post:
Bush’s fast-moving manner can make his listening skills appear suspect, Lahkani says. This point is bolstered during Bush’s onstage “conversations.”
In Omaha on Friday, a divorced single mother named Mary Mornin tells the president, “I have one child, Robbie, who is mentally challenged, and I have two daughters.”
“Fantastic,” the president exclaims, and he tells her she has “the hardest job in America, being a single mom.”
Later, the 57-year old Mornin tells Bush that she works three jobs, which the president deems “uniquely American” and “fantastic.” He asks her if she gets any sleep.
I just don’t understand how this guy won?
