I didn't say I thought he should do anything to stop the fall, even if he could. My point was about John Q. Public's perception of events and what Bush says. So, they have unreal expectations based on their misperceptions...

Which brings up another dilemma for leaders: they can't say something to the effect of "don't worry about the dollar, it will stop falling one of these days." But they also can't panic investors by being panicked themselves.
