Oh, and Don, I do wish Obama would take a lesson from both FDR and Harry Truman.
Of course, the press didn't much like Truman either -- but we didn't have 24-hour political talk radio, much less 24-hour partisan TV news commentary, back then.

I hope he will do it. But if and when he does, he very well may face either physically or assassination or at least politically.

Our world is very different from the way it was in 40 or more years ago.
