| 5. Isn't he always, though? |

Funny and charming, I mean. Except when he's down to business, like answering a question at a press conference.
But he's never flustered, never stammering, never stuck for the graceful, gracious response, always with a self-deprecating twist, which is just so beautiful.
He does, indeed, call forth our "better angels."
"The mystic chords of memory, stretching from every battle-field, and patriot grave, to every living heart and hearth-stone, all over this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the better angels of our nature."
Lincoln would be so damn proud of our President Obama, wouldn't he?

| 7. It would have definitely been a mistake . . . the US |
|
has a team going forward in World Cup (they meet Trinidad & Tobago today, 6:30pm CT on ESPN2)
And kudos to him for calling it by its proper name. Football.

I don't agree with everything he is doing, but he's NOT getting led around by a nose-ring like dim-son was
President Obama is doing most of his own thinking.
