What I said was that he doesn't inspire confidence. But then frat boys were never meant to do that! As for the excesses of the late 90's, that's a different story.

I'm glad you feel you have the credentials to be a critic. Tom, With all respect, I don't think that anyone needs "credentials" to be a critic of our leaders. It's the American way. Besides, I didn't see any particularly impressive credentials of those criticizing Clinton from the minute he stepped into office. And, from what I've seen, we now have a President who is in so far over his head it's not funny. It WAS funny watching him try to talk about education and making this statement: "You teach a child to read, and he or her will be able to pass a literacy test.''— Doubya in Townsend, Tenn., Feb. 21, 2001 slate.msn.com However, faced with a real international crisis, it is not funny that we have a President who has trouble putting a grammatical sentence together. I wasn't alone yesterday in wishing that Clinton could be reinstated for a week or two to deal with this crisis and instill some sense of calm and control. I didn't feel any of that in watching this president read a two minute statement from a piece of paper between frantic calls to Dick Cheney and his Dad. Dr.Id@butIsurehopethatImwrong.pol

Bush maybe our president by accident (and we all will support him 100000% during the current crisis hoping he has enough knowledgable people around him to tell himm what to do to take definitive actions). But lets face it, he is no leader, and has never been and will never be. He aint Ronald Reagan, and he aint Bill Clinton. He is a little frat boy who has come to truly understand just because your daddy wants you to be a doctor does not mean that you are capable of being one. I too wished, Clinton could be re-instated for at least a week to take care of this crisis after which Bush can again sit in the white house doing whatever it is that he does.
