The wisdom and magnanimity to keep focused shrug off the crap are indicators of real power, of comfort and confidence in one's power. I think we have come closer to this than any Power in history.

We keep acting like we have to assert ourselves each and every time, to fight each slight tooth and nail. The wisdom and magnanimity to keep focused shrug off the crap are indicators of real power, of comfort and confidence in one's power. It is only the runts who have to fight every fight. It's not that, it's a philosophical difference. Bush doesn't like the crap, so he thinks he shouldn't reward it. That means more fussing short term, but hopefully less in the long term. America takes a lot of crap because people know it's cost-free.
