Out of My Mind

Ali is slow, he's not an idiot. Parkinson's slows (to say the least).

At the 11/9/05 Medal of Freedom ceremony per The Washington Post:

"Bush, who appeared almost playful, fastened the heavy medal around Muhammad Ali's neck and whispered something in the heavyweight champion's ear. Then, as if to say "bring it on," the president put up his dukes in a mock challenge. Ali, 63, who has Parkinson's disease and moves slowly, looked the president in the eye -- and, finger to head, did the 'crazy' twirl for a couple of seconds."
