writes Steve- His security team required him to wear a bullet-resistant vest. BRBR I'll buy that. On his ranch, when he doesn't have a suit coat on, he doesn't look like he has love handles, but in a suit coat, he does. I say a vest...maybe a wire too, but a vest. i'm surprized more leaders don't wear them...a vest that is. I really can't imagine HM the Q wearing a flak jacket, old chap. Mike -- M.J.Powell |

Intelligence does not correlate well with either correct decision making or success[1]. Other factors seem at least as important. Bush the elder was not very bright but made a number of good calls, some under serious pressure. His son is brighter, but hasn't done as well. [1] note that I said "does not correlate well" not "correlates negatively." Peter Skelton |

... http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/3730364.stm Outgoing president hooked onto radio remote control? 1. Bush remarks "Don't interrupt me" when he has time on the clock and no one is talking to him. go to: rtsp://cspanrm.fplive.net/cspan/project/c04/c04093004_debate1.rm ffwd to 40 min 30 sec for "don't..." There is an mp3 with the audio at NYC indymedia 2. Putting a/the earpiece into his ear at a White House press conference. George Bush doesn't do well with a teleprompter. He supposedly wore one during the last State of the Union. He wore one when speaking in France last June. In fact, you can actually see him put the earpiece into his ear and hear the coaching over the microphone. The video can be found on the White House web site!!! http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/relea...0040605-6.html (Play the one that says VIEW) |

Ike was not dumb but I'm too young to remember his press coverage. I do remember Nixon's, he was accused of a lot of things but not stupidity. Eisenhower was generally presented as an amiable, likelble, old guy, with no real grasp of teh complications of medern society. (Especially compared to Adlai Stevenson) The fact that he was in charge of the military and diplomatic ends of the largest-ever example oc Coalition Warfare ever seen a mere 6 years before seems to have escaped attention. But, then, the "RightLeft" thing was much less of an issue. In those days, it was more "Machine Politician" vs. "Free Thinker" I think the biggest surprise in that era was Harry Truman. Previous to stepping up to the plate when F.D.R. died, he was the Nobody Senator who npbpdy really disliked, who was a scion of the second or third most corrupt Political Machines in the country. (One of the reasons that FDR chose, or allowed Truman to be chosen, was because Truman had nothing against him, and there were pretty good odds that Roosevelt wouldn;t finish his term. By 1944, everybody was suspicious of Henry Wallace, the sitting Vice President, and with good reason. He was a rather loopy sort, philosophically, and the Counter-Intelligence folks had discovered that he had been feeding information to both the Abwehr (Inadvertantly, he couldn't keep his mouth shut) and the Soviets (On purpose, for reasons that he never could explain the same way twice). Truman weht in as a nobody, the next best thing to a puppet, and when the time came for him to be President, surprised everybody with his force of personality, skill, and willingness to be his own man. -- Pete Stickney A strong conviction that something must be done is the parent of many bad measures. -- Daniel Webster |
