Nonsense. Bush runs three miles a day. He's got lots of energy.
Energy should be expended to convince people. I don't see the need to be funerally somber at this press conference.
We don't need a fire-and-brimstone preacher. He need quiet, solemn judgment to save as many lives as possible.
We already had a so-called "charismatic" President who screwed things up. Now I prefer a sober one.
I don't think he is basing his "somberness" on need; I beleive that he feels somber. We have reached the end of diplomacy (I hope anyway).
Frankly, I'd love to hear something strong - something to absolutely remove all doubt from all but the goofiest of leftists.
