AND WHAT'S THE LESSON HERE, CLASS?

Let Bush be Bush. He's gotten back to the candor and focus he showed right after 9/11. The President's in the old speaking mode ala "Osama is wanted, dead or alive". Forget the focus groups and advisors. Plain talk and less-then-perfect speech works when it's backed by passion and resolve. He scores extra points with his "Yeah, I've eavesdropped on bad guys and I'll do it again speech".

Kudos to Gov. Ahhhnold. He's telling his hometown in Austria exactly how he feels.
