I disagree. That is exactly the way folksy ole' George B. would talk about reading three plays by Shakespeare. He'd make it sound like he had three beers to show what a regular guy he is. Doesn't mean he read 'em, of course. And Rove, with whom he's supposedly in a reading contest, would never dare ask him. Can't you just hear their bragging. Rove: "I read Racine." "Yeah? I read three Shakespeares and they're not even in English!"
It's fascinating that this has emerged after Joe Scarborough's "Is Bush an Idiot?" segment and his very honest opinion that the President is much less coherent and focused than when he started his term--his second term. The President--and his staff--doth protest too much, methinks. Given the ample evidence that he either has
a learning disability or is dyslexic, it's unlikely he read anything at all.
