There is, however, more than one way to interpret his "and not a moment too soon" comment. As a word freak (like many of us), Anu has suffered for the past 8 years with a president who found it nearly impossible to extemporaneously put together a coherent sentence that did not contradict itself. It truly made me cringe at times. You could ask Anu what he meant, but I do think it's possible he was referring to the language aspect of Mr. Bush. Now, he can kill two birds with one stone with that statement, and it still doesn't decisively refer to the president's politics. Of course, it is, as you say, Anu's facility, but this one is at least ambiguous. :0)
