The Scared President

O
n Saturday, I was reading Peggy Noonan's column in the Wall Street Journal, entitled "The Two Vacuums."

The column had a photo of George Bush delivering his speech this past week on his plan to, hmmm, surge/escalate/increase American troops in Iraq. [The photo appears in the on-line version of the column, too.]

My 7 year-old daughter peered over my shoulder as I read Noonan's column. And she said this about the photo:

Is that the President? He looks different. He looks like he's lost hair. And he looks scared.

I pulled her around, gave her a hug, and told her she's one smart cookie.
