Clinton would have made it a 30-minute "uplifting" speech, then he would have actually done little. Pres. Bush is a man of few words but real action.

You nailed it, bump!

I agree. However, we sometimes want and expect our President to offer comforting words. Especially in times of hardship or tragedy.

It's part of the job description, and right now Bush is failing miserably in that department.
