Bush

[Doug Harris]

Was that, perhaps, a delayed reaction to some surgery he's undergone?
(like to boy from York, England).

I didn't watch or listen to the president's press conference yesterday (I'm
not a masochist!). But late last night I heard a commentator on CNBC talking
about it. He noted that, at one particularly tense moment, Bush lost his
infamous emulation of TexSpeak and reverted to his native New England
dialect. I wonder what details the commentator was observing, phonologically
speaking?
