This article is discussing his State of the Union address is January of 2002. Bush's popularity is sky high at this time and this reporter is praising Bush for hitting many of the right points in his speech. He praises Bush for his emphasis on the war on terror, defense at home, and reviving the economy. Though it is the New York Times so it does criticize his proposed tax cuts which seem to contradict the idea of spending on the war on terror and defense. While it points out flaws in his plan it is ultimately an article that is holding Bush in high regard. I found that I had a very hard time finding good press on George Bush and I am not sure if that is because of the politically left leaning media or if it is because except for the brief period after Sept. 11 he has made so many mistakes.
