[what's up]

The administration has done a first-class job of moving in quickly to defend against the anthrax threat. In addition, their skill at managing a message which is calming, yet calls people to be alert couldn't be better IMO.

The press are a bunch of hyenas and they have been getting on my nerves BAD the last week or so.

By the time these red dogs are through, everyone in America may very well despise them.

They've certainly done much better than they're being given credit for. Unfortunately, the administration's spokesmen on the anthrax issue--Tommy Thompson and Tom Ridge--have not articulated well. It's been reported that this week Tom Ridge will begin taking the lead on the issue. Hopefully he'll get his sea legs for his new position soon.
