Bill Clinton would have said "I'm sorry you're disappointed, what can we do?" It wouldn't necessarily be sincere, just a smarter way to deflect the question politically. You could always say Bush was "having a bad day," but his kneejerk response to the question seems very much in character. Whatever the writer's motivations, if his essay convinces anyone to doubt the Smirker-in-Chief (who didn't already), it's a worthwhile exercise. This is war, after all.
but what about a coarsening of the culture? i have to ask myself WWKGD? (what would katherine graham do?) and yes, clinton would finesse (and make you feel oily) while the shrub engages with slash and burn (as much oil as possible). maybe this has something to do with it.
