I'm with you. I've been perplexed -- and amazed in a perverse sort of way. I just HAD to find out what the man's problem is. I checked out some web sites with his quotes; there are some good ones out there. (poor people who had to run through everything and put it together in a nice website format).

Anyway, I've posted that I believe George has brain damage. Other people have posted some very good theories. I looked at hundreds of his quotes, and it seems that there is something wrong with the part of his brain that assembles words together in sentences.

He seems to know the words OK, but he scrambles them. Sometimes he merges 2 sentences together, maybe in an effort to save time. He sometimes mixes up colloquialisms like, "The senator can't ride on his high horse and take the low road". So he seems to know the words, they just go through this blender in his brain before they make it to his mouth.

I'm sure he's used to having people giggle when he talks, or they give him a blank stare which means they don't understand him.
