Richard,
Great point about Truman. My mom told me they were in a mini-panic the day FDR died. FDR kept Truman far away from the action. Job sometimes makes the man. And another similiarity i believe between bush and truman is that Truman too had a first rate cabinet of experienced hands. From this came the Marshall Plan, the rebuilding of Japan and Germany without animus to avoid Treaty of Versailles nightmare. Another big difference between us and the French. <g> mike
PS You might be right about the two thread solution. Am i calm enough for you now? Got my OSHA mask on to walk thru lower manhattan. Talked to a few cops today. My new morning job is to thank them wherever i see them which is on every corner now. I have them all convinced that bin laden will appear in NYC as a 6'4" womans baskedball player, sans beard. I am convinced he left the caves on 9/10. His face is emblazened in my conciousness and if i find him, i shall personally kill him or call my new friends the police. Talk about a thin blue line. If anyone watches the TV show Centre street on A&E, that show explained what thin blue lines are all about. God Bless the quiet bravery of the American people thru all of this. mike@intherarmywithoutuniform.com
