Looks like they got the message: This is the President of the United States and he is entitled to speak to the People of the United States any day, any hour, any moment.

You are right,,they got the message. Your post reminded me of the scene in To KIll a Mockingbird when Atticus walks by and the woman tells the daughter to "stand up, your father is passin",,,GWB will be regarded in that way for years to come.
