If that is so, sorry about that horrible mistake. I'm not a medical doctor and I couldn't find a more descriptive word to describe his famous "memory problems". You people seem to be able to build a long debate from a simple and irrelevant sentence. Perhaps Saddam would have been a better choise, at least fewer people would have complained (although I could have received a nicely packaged bomb in mail). But he wasn't a cowboy actor, which I find kind of funny. I guess there's plenty of examples of incompetent people in the world of politics.
