after doing my morning posting, i realized that this was the only one i didn't have "latest post" on... so, for completeness...
i think bush is doing a pretty good job. there are always going to be dissenters, but the fact of the matter is, he's kept his composure and spoken wisely. he hasn't acted immediately (a good thing, i think - ann coulter is hot but i don't agree that we should have been bombing afghanistan that night). i personally would like to see some evidence that bin laden is connected to september 11, but i'm sure they'll deliver. i think they're going to handle this carefully and make sure they're certain before they take any action. and i think that's the way to do it. so... i don't think he's handling it poorly. all things considered, i think he's doing a lot better than a lot of people expected.
another thing - i'm definitely not a gore supporter... but i saw video footage of him, at a podium and in front of supporters, saying something to the effect of "mr. bush is my commander in chief!" and giving praise to how it was being handled. i thought that was a really classy thing he did. and i think it shows how the country is coming together. definitely a good thing.
