PING!

Is the James Rosen who wrote this the same James Rosen who is a Fox News Channcel White House correspondent?

Jaded and bored, we pounced on the gaffes and yawned at the platitudes.

Hard to believe anyone is even mentioning verbal gaffes after what this President has already done for this country!

Oh, well......at least they're beginning to figure things out.

And, oh yes...I can vouch for the fact that he cuts a 'neat, muscular' figure! One might even say, dashing! :o)

Thank you for this ping-I loved this article-but then, we knew the plain-speak, the kind of speak you know comes from the heart and is 'doable', was exactly what this nation needed a while back. We aren't surprised at his reception out in crowds of fellow Americans-but I am surprised to learn the WH correspondants are warming up to our President, beginning to value his abilities to communicate. That is really neat.

But my favorite snipit from from this article was Rosen's words:

"dignity gap"

It was said referring to President Bush's remarks regarding Wellstone while campaigning in Minn...how his remarks were far more compassionate and correct than the prior Wellstone orgy memorial.

These two words seem to reflect far more than that one episode in dem political manipulations vs conservative statemanship. This 'dignity gap' reflects what has separated this administration from the prior one...and even reflects the differences in dem and republican senators.

There IS a dignity gap....I hope the dems start crossing over that gap, that they grow up, and start dealing with issues as opposed to their newest effort to break the nation's trust in our President and military regarding the war on terrorism effort. They have no dignity. And Americans are tired of being embarrassed by these venomous, partisan, party above country freaks.
