The other day president of biggest power on earth, angered by continued violence in Iraq, said "Come on," daring insurgents to attack our own troops (the White House press corps tried to clean this gaff up, saying Bush only meant to say our forces were strong). If this little tiny pipsqueak man would stop swaggering around, we'd all be a lot better off. Hormonal grandstanding is one of drawbacks of a real man's man, and a male presidency. I'm largely free of such feelings. Should I feel guilty? Ashamed? Not only am I a sensitive guy, on weekends my wife gets in car and drives to meetings (she's a workaholic) while I stay home and wait for her to return. Isn't man supposed to do this (drive off)? I think I've got it backwards. Maybe my mother was really supposed to have a second daughter, and my signals got mixed up just at last second. In any event, I'm proud of my feminine side, and secure with it. I'd like to see a woman president, if for no other reason than she wouldn't have to live up to John Wayne.
