How to take the W sticker off your bumper
Think Peggy Noonan's over Pres. Bush? From her column this morning:
As I watched the news conference, it occurred to me that one of the things that might leave people feeling somewhat disoriented is the president's seemingly effortless high spirits. He's in a good mood. There was the usual teasing, ...Read More...
