"Leadership?"

"Here we are, I'm out at my third Pro Bowl, I'm about to go in and throw a touchdown to Jerry Rice, we're honoring the Hall of Fame, and we're talking about our idiot kicker who got liquored up and ran his mouth off." - Peyton Manning

Which one (Manning or Bush) is a more effective leader? On a day when the Iraqi transformation was ratified by 68% of the electorate, and that his vision of Iraq's independence is now careening toward certainty, the "architect" of the war in Iraq is spouting off like an idiot. In recent days he's given the impression that the military intelligence leading into the war was "faulty", and now he wants to handcuff the intelligence function even more with this brain-dead scheme. Now, no matter what the terrorists do, they know they will get the country club treatment in Gitmo for all their troubles.

When McCain came up with this, George should have just said, "On a day when Iraqi independence is assured, and we are honoring the people who fought for their independence, we're talking about our idiot senators who get get liquored up and run their mouths off".

Peyton is 13-0 this season. GWB will miss the playoffs. Who's the better leader?
