In today's cartoon, Pat Oliphant shows us George Bush on the stump. He wears the big Texas cowboy hat that Oliphant gives him to emphasize what the cartoonist considers his immaturity and dependence on a group of ruthless senior advisors. Bush announces, "I am a wartime president!" A "wartime president" is one who must make the hard decisions connected with armed conflict, in Bush's case, the military actions that are a response to the 9/11 terrorist attacks. In return, such a leader tends to enjoy a large measure of support even from voters who disagree with many of his decisions. Politicians like to be "wartime presidents".
