411: The President can't speak Spanish!

In what can only be described as a shocking declaration, outgoing White House Press Secretary, Scott McClellan, announced that the President's Spanish is not very good. In fact his direct quote was:

"The president can speak Spanish but not that well. He's not that good with his Spanish."

Granted it is very refreshing that something negative is being said about the President, but here is what upsets operatorLA the most. The President can not speak Spanish at all! Don't try and fool us! Just because ol' Georgie can read (poorly) a few words of Spanish from a teleprompter in a speech, does not mean that he can speak Spanish. That is like saying a three year old that you have taught to count to five in another language is bilingual!

Besides, I don't think it is a surprise that he can't speak Spanish, he still hasn't mastered English.
