What world class leaders have you watched interacting with an audience? I think Bush was every bit as good as Reagan. I particularly remember Andrea Mitchell's and Sam Donaldson's attacks on Reagan at press conferences, and I think Bush has to deal with far more venom and did it with grace and strength (and not a little bit of humor).

SO, who are you comparing him to? Gorbachev? Schroeder? Blair?

I think the President did just fine, and your snooty and condescending opinion strikes me as one I would hear at certain academic quarters.

I wasn't able to post this morning..but was watching the presser..and listening to Laura Ingraham...

She does/says a lot of things lately to irritate me...



Just out of curiosity, would one of those things be "Let's go tooooo...ahhhh...line up the calls, guys....ahhhhh"?

That said, she did a great job against the Axis of NBCvil this morning (David Groggory and SerpentHead CarVile).

"President Bush: to all the people on Free Republic who have been trashing me I just want to say "SCREW YOU""

Long over due.

Wow a recap speech of all the other sales speeches...

...and yet Dubya's still Commander In Chief and leader of the free world and you're just a DU sympathizer. I urge you to not opt out, even though reality and your life continue to get more depressing. I can't really give a good reason but just don't do it.

Just a lucky guess...that is one of the instant "click-offs" for me. That, and the question-torials (questions that are so long, I've forgotten the first part by the time it gets to the end).

Beautiful woman, overcome a lot, very compassionate, will make some REAL MAN (hear that, Jimmy?) a great wife, but when I know that is coming, my finger can't hit the click button fast enough.

LOL!! You got me, you really got me. Just because I don't like politicians giving senseless speeches that are nothing more than rhetoric they said the day before.

even though reality and your life continue to get more depressing

Depressing, heck no!! I just got a job offer the other day. So I'm quite happy. And before you tell me I should thank the President, I won't. Government intervention into the free market does nothing but slow down what capitalism could be. Even going on my first vacation in close to a decade in a few months. So I guess I'll be able to 'thank' the government for the TSA holdup I'll have to go through though

"you are either with us or with the terrorists"

Clearly, you are not with us.

Perhaps you have not the experience I have with watching world class leaders interacting with an audience. Blah Blah Blah

I watched/listened to the President's response to Helen Thomas and concluded he mopped the floor with her.

Your "stammered about" characterization was so far off as to make your post seem like a troll.

Why am I supposed to bow to your supposed experience with watching world class leaders interact with an audience?

What EXACTLY are your noteworthy credentials in this regard?

LOL. Shall I send you a resume?

I've been in international business, US politics and R&D for decades. I've met, known some great corporate leaders, scientists and military leaders worlwide.

Pres. Bush handled HT sloppily. HT was not put in her place, she was merely shut up.

Defense Sec Rumsfeld, or VP Cheney have far better way of dealing with the press. Consider also Gen Schwartzkopf, Ronald Reagan and that General who handled Katrina.

Shame on Dubya for repeating the truth 2 days in a row, and pre-empting your important soap operas.

I just got a job offer the other day.

Is it safe to participate in 2 medical studies back to back?

Even going on my first vacation in close to a decade in a few months.

We will miss your sophistry.

Oh yes, 'truth'. I haven't heard 'truth' from a politician in 25 years. I know it's been longer but that's as long as I've been listening. 'Truth' is now dependent upon which party happens to be in power. Who said partisanship is dead? And before you attack with one of your little one liners, I'm not saying the Democrats are right either. They both present the 'truth' through their partisan views.

Is it safe to participate in 2 medical studies back to back?

How witty....

We will miss your sophistry

Many of my posts on threads like this are usually over the average partisan's head. I can easily understand why you would see it as sophistry

The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge, natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism. The disorders and miseries which result gradually incline the minds of men to seek security and repose in the absolute power of an individual

The awe with which faithful party members have when 'their' leader is in office leans toward the ridiculous. Bush is nothing more than a politician.

Yeah, it's like I thought -- you're full of yourself.

You imagine your superiority.
