So, the NYT and Edmund Morris now label Cindy as an "emotional predator..."

A president has to protect himself from emotional predators, or he'd be sucked dry within a week of taking office.

there isn't a shadow of doubt in my mind that being president of the united states is perhaps the most emotionally taxing job on earth and that, if the person holding that office isn't exceptionally diligent in managing his self-care, he's toast... but the implication of this op-ed piece, that avoiding a meeting with cindy sheehan is merely intelligent self-care, is both insidious and wrong... bush could use a meeting with mrs. sheehan as a wonderful platform to demonstrate a whole host of things that would reflect favorably on him but that would require putting aside his arrogance, his self-perception of omnipotence, and his facade of compassion... ain't gonna happen... and mr. morris would be well-advised to stop defending the indefensible...
