OH thank you SOOOOOOOOOO much for posting the picture in #154. That was one of his finest, most Presidential moments, as far as I'm concerned.

To me, it spoke volumes - I'm HERE you terrorist bastards, in Yankee Stadium, in New York City, which you tried to destroy. I'm here, the fans are here and we are not afraid of you. Come on, take your best shot. No??? OK, then. Play ball.

God, I love this President.

Thanks for the ping Meek. This is a fabulous article.

". . . Bush glanced over his shoulder, took a beat--and nodded once, as if to say: Hi there--be with you in a moment. The audience laughed, and Al Gore was finished for the night." Something of the same sort seemed to happen to Daschle last week. After his outburst, the White House... giving him the chance to back down from his tantrum."

There is something about dead silence and kindness that is so powerful. It makes the person being an idiot either admit it and back down, or deny that he's an idiot and make things worse. When President Bush responds with kindness, the liberals' attacks have nowhere to land, and their huffing and puffing becomes clearly childish.

I LOVE the way this man plays the game!

What is more important to us: the rule of law or power? Because sometimes, you only get to choose one.

If you're including our Constitution in the rule of law, then there clearly is only one choice. One of the more brilliant notions in the Constitution is that we have a Presidential election every 4 years - no sooner, and no longer.
That gives an admin. enough time to achieve some goals without having to constantly campaign (although these days that part isn't so clear!). And it gives us a chance to get rid of a vile character before he does too much damage.

Even clintoon, in 8 years, couldn't do more damage than Bush can clean up in 8. It's up to us to pay attention and vote. The only way the country can fail is if we do. And then we deserve it.

I remember the night Gore walked over to Bush also. What a jerk he appeared to be. Wait, that shouldn't be appeared to be, it's a fact, he's a jerk.

Great article by the way.

Bob Barr did not go off on wild eyed rants. And your anhile accusation of him, is in fact a wild eyed rant.

The current crop of democrats are the dumbest in history.

It's ironic how they ran a very stupid hick like gore and they thought he was smart. But they go around telling everyone Bush is dumb.

My pleasure. Yes he is. He tells it like is, expresses how he feels and people see he is SINCERE. What a contrast to the ex-pervert-in-chief we just got rid of almost 2 years ago, huh?

bump for Sunday morning reading

What kind of a populist are you if the people aren't with you? What kind of an intellectual are you if you aren't smarter than Bush? How can people so smart, and whose views are so popular, be beaten so often by someone so clueless? The idea that George Bush is a gifted politician whose views are quite mainstream would make their world crumble. On the other hand, if they are so often trounced by an out-of-touch moron, then what does it say about them?

priceless!

"Gore spent only a few weeks in Vietnam..."

Thanks for the additional info, SP.

Just a minor point -- I think he spent more like 5 months over there, which was still less than half a full tour.

It's not without some validity that Gore believes he can get away with any lie. He knows the media will always cover up for him. He told lie upon lie upon lie and still had half of America voting for him.
