he has lost his confidence

Are you drinking?

Bush was supremely confident.

He didn't do well when the press was asking him to apologize, or grovel, or find fault with his communication style. Sheesh! What ridiculous questions!!

But, the reason the American people still bond with Bush is because he's just like they are.

We don't need a starched-shirt "command presenced" geek who can't connect.

Presidents aren't automatons, or whiz-kids, like the fellatee we had for eight years.

Bush has plenty of confidence, which is why we are not cutting and running in Iraq.

Bush should have told the truth on that mistakes question.
He also should have announced the truth that is Islam does not mean peace, it means subjugation.

He should have said his biggest mistake was keeping all the Clinton holdovers.

That is what I think he should have said... if he was going to tell the truth.
"My biggest mistake prior to 9/11, was listening to, and keeping of the staff put in place by William Jefferson Clinton.
