[Useless]

Did anyone catch the point where Bush said we need to be 'facile'? Huh? What? Who...? Perhaps I could understand him if I was a bit more facile.

To quote dictionary.com:
1. Done or achieved with little effort or difficulty; easy. See Synonyms at easy.
2. Working, acting, or speaking with effortless ease and fluency.
3. Arrived at without due care, effort, or examination; superficial: proposed a facile solution to a complex problem.
4. Readily manifested, together with an aura of insincerity and lack of depth: a facile slogan devised by politicians.
5. Archaic. Pleasingly mild, as in disposition or manner.

I can see where #4 works with Bush.
