A remarkably short period of time.
Once again...Flipper tries to build himself up. John Kerry? or Walter Mitty?
A remarkably short period of time.
And he got it together without frightening the kids...
As I recall that is not strictly true as some Democrats suggested the President should have immediatly returned to Washington and intimated cowardice was the reason he did not. Most Democrats muted their critical barrage but not all.
Personally, I think that Bush was just being mindful of the sensitities of the children. To jump up and start wringing your hands would have been very frightful. Bush comported himself magnificently.
He could not have left if he wanted to. The Secret Service would have held him back until they reviewed the scene, and had confirmed safe passage.
I don't know how long it took Bush to get his thoughts together. I don't know what he was told. I do know Kerry is a liar and opportunist, a miscreant.
I do know that Bush has a very able staff. VP Cheney, Rumsfeld, Powell, Rice and Aides....
I do know that Kerry has Edwards and Heinz. I do know that Kerry had Berger on his team. Now he's got this Rice woman.
If you know a man by the company he keeps, then we keep Bush. But America is a sick nation. If 48% like a socialist s.o.b., a congential liar (at home in his party), then we become like Canada, France and Germany. EOM.
