I'm old enough to remember when Harry Truman dodged his SS guards and went for unaccompanied walks :-).
But it really is the arrogance of this president that has me scared. The other day he said that because he'd been re-elected, nobody in his administration need answer for any mistakes they'd made concerning Iraq (and I suspect he'd apply the same "logic" to any other issue.)
And yes, Clinton showed some of the same arrogance, but to a lesser degree. It seems that each succeeding administration takes us closer to an imperial presidency. And this one says he gets his orders from God. In about five more presidencies, we may have a Nero who claims he IS God.
There are times I'm really glad that I'm old - I'll be gone before most of the s... hits the fan.
