    Of course this is a rhetorical question yet apt

    Everyone knows the headline is rhetorical but the point is apt.

    George W. Bush, after plundering the country on so many fronts has gone into hiding yet again while the economy fails beneath us.

    It's a cliche but when the going gets tough, the tough get going.

    I applaud Barack Obama for stepping up early. He obviously has the courage to face trouble and he obviously wants to solve problems.

    It's reassuring to know the right man was elected. Finally a President with some guts and intelligence.
