"authentic"
Yeah, I love that comment too. Does that mean that the last 5 years Bush was "un-authentic" .. LOL!
Yes.
Because in their world polite, decent, humane, respectful....all inauthentic and fake.
Combative, blunt, pushy, uncaring, forceful....authentic behavior.
The President just showed them that he can beat them at their own game...and suddenly they are scared!
