Reply #10: grat----your post reminded me of something in the announcement of [View All]

[DemocracyInaction]

this trip. It said Bush AND members of the administration (or some such verbage) were going to go o this 60 day tour. You are correct about his 'staying power'. If he is met with thousands of cheering fans, Mr. Rock Star will stay on tour (and he won't have those kind and number of crowds---did you see the ones he had last time around??--they were hand selected and couldn't get up enough enthusiasm to scratch their butts---even had to resort to high school kids who looked like deer caught in the headlights)!!!! If he isn't adored, he will come back home to government 'business' that just couldn't do without him and the underlings will take over. That means he will fail to get support BUT when it is flushed by the Congress, it will be blamed on baaaad underlings and not Mr. Rock Star.
