"My personal view is that complexity in a leader is not a helpful thing," Representative Blunt said, "and certainly not a helpful thing in a crisis."

Interesting observation -- I believe Blunt is referring to the Truman-like quality of W, as stated by Gov. Rowland, "What you see is what you get." Keeps his aides and advisors from trying to have to figure out what he wants.

somebody described him as the least neurotic person on the planet, and I think that's true. In terms of the big picture he has a sense of buoyancy, of calm, of focus, which comes in handy in a situation like this where it can be very easy to get confused and scared."

How reassuring!

owf, thx for the flag.

Good point. With Bush, as with Truman, "the buck stops here." With the creature who formerly resided in the White House, it was "define 'buck,' define 'here.' "
