Until I just read Matt Towery's column, it never occurred to me that George W. Bush hasn't made use of the power and solemnity - the AUTHORITY! - of the Oval Office. I agree with this writer. This should be done soon - a major, soaring, reassuring speech directly to the American people, as Ronald Reagan did so effectively from that great location, the only one of its kind in the world.

When the major news headlines center around some silly plot to get presidential advisor Karl Rove fired or conjecture over Supreme Court nominations and future resignations, my experience tells me that things are actually turning around. An article a few days ago talked about the silliness of the summer of 2001, where the conversation focused on Chandra Levy and shark attacks. Silliness in the news does not necessarily presage good tidings.

The Oval Office? I thought that was the Clinton Bedroom.
