File this one under Gosh, I wish I could like this guy. I thought it was very cool, the way Bush waded in and got hold of his Secret Service agent. Probably the biggest cajones he’s evidenced since he climbed up on the fire engine at the WTC. (Landing on the aircraft carrier doesn’t count, for any number of reasons not germain to the point.) The point is that Bush may be many things, including a lousy president, but he’s no effete imperial dandy.

Way ta git-r-done, Dubya.
