It really made me wonder one day he's supporting the coal industry the next day he's going green.

Or was it his seeming inability to distinguish between “Islamist” and “Islamic” when he strayed off script during a speech he delivered in Saudi Arabia, a mistake he blamed on exhaustion, though he had only recently left home?Most people, I ima... less
