Come on Mr. Prez. Shoot some arrows at all these hypocrites!

I hear your concerns, darling lilyangtree.

So, let this little bit on G.W. prop up you, me, and all of us here.

From a thread, "GWB: HBS MBA" ---

********

"By reputation, the President was a very avid and skillful poker player when he was an MBA student.

One of the secrets of a successful poker player is to encourage your opponent to bet a lot of chips on a losing hand. This is a pattern of behavior one sees repeatedly in George W. Bush’s political career. He is not one to loudly proclaim his strengths at the beginning of a campaign.

Instead, he bides his time, does not respond forcefully, a least at first, to critiques from his enemies, no matter how loud and annoying they get. If anything, this apparent passivity only goads them into making their case more emphatically."

You and I should know that those arrows are still in the quill, but they're coming out soon!

Replies are greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the upbeat message. I needed that. I still remember his Baghdad trip beating out ole Hitlery, and his flying the airplane and landing it on an aircraft carrier with all the navy beaming smiles at him. My flagging faith is renewed.
