Desperate Bush tries to improve on last week's performance

George Bush has used a rally to try to win back some of the ground he lost it his lacklustre performance at the first presidential debate

The president tried to redo the debate from last week by giving a speech full of untruths he couldn't say on stage with John Kerry because he knew Kerry would knock them down,' Kerry spokesman Phil Singer said.

The Guardian goes further, questioning whether Bush is slipping into a substitute reality - as if we had to ask. Mind I thought we slipped into an alternate reality back in 2000 when a monkey allegedly got elected president of the United States
