People who have met with Mr. Bush have been struck by his tranquillity.

Some of us were drawn to him because of this tranquility, recognizing that his faith makes him strong. We are so blessed to have a moral man of convictions guiding the helm.

"Some of us were drawn to him because of this tranquility ... "

THAT'S the word I've been searching for to define our president in his latest news conference (prime time, carried by networks, thank You, God!). There are other words to describe how gracefully he stood and thought and spoke, but tranquility really hits at the root.

Thanks for the ping.

My admiration for this president grows by the hour. And my contempt for the cretins trying to undermine him and bring him down knows no bounds.

So true. Reagan was a great man and great president for the same reason. Now W appears to be entering history precisely because he has integrity, meaning he is guided by principle and morality.
