Sound Bite of the Day from Barbara Bush “You could be Speaker of the House”
Posted by TJ Walker in Communications, Government & Politics, Humor, Presentation Skills Training, Public Speaking Skills, reputation management on February 14, 2011

Barbara’s quips always resonate because she’s not afraid to attack and she’s always funny. Let’s hope she’s around as long as George Burns so she can keep on delivering them.

We Americans often put the British on a pedestal when it comes to their speaking skills (think George W. Bush and Jimmy Carter versus Tony Blair and Winston Churchill). That’s why it’s refreshing to see this clip of all the major blunders made by BBC anchors during the last year. Enjoy the show.

“You are trying to impose the values of Fire Island on Parris Island. These are 19-year-old Marines, they’re very macho guys. Many of them are Christian traditionalists and you’ve got these secular values and you bring open homosexuals into the barracks with these guys, it’ll be hellish. One Marine commandant said very simply, ‘Would moving homosexuals into the barracks with my Marines enhance the fighting effectiveness, the cohesion and morale of our Marine units?
