'Up to his usual stunts.
'You do have to hand to it to the guy. He swooped on to the flight deck of the USS Abraham Lincoln last week - the most spectacular entrance since the last Broadway production of Hello Dolly! - and he did look, in his bomber jacket, quite fantastically butch. As Lincoln himself said at Gettysburg (wrongly, that time), no one will remember a word the president said. But they will remember the scene and his smile and the cheering soldiery and his bomber jacket, and believe that George W Bush had just defeated all those pesky Eye-raqis single-handed. Of course, it is remotely possible that the American electorate will decide that there are some political stunts so blatantly manipulative that they are actually intolerable. But we can probably rule that one out.' - Matthew Engel, in the Guardian.
