3. Thank goodness.
A rested president is a president able to bring his whole chimp like abilities to bear on the problems facing america. Can you imagine how bad things would be if we had, say, half a chimp running things?

4. Poor dear, there have been times he couldn't fall asleep by 9:30PM?
I thought microcephalics didn't have much worries over "piece of mind."

6. He slept pretty good on the night of Sept. 11 as well.

According to this story from the Times of London:

MONDAY NOVEMBER 26 2001


False alarm roused Bush from his bed


FROM MARTIN FLETCHER IN WASHINGTON


ON THE night of September 11, President and Mrs Bush were roused from
their bed and rushed down to the bunker below the White House because an aircraft had been spotted flying towards the President's mansion,
George W. Bush disclosed yesterday. Describing his day to Newsweek magazine, Mr Bush also recalled the moment that Andrew Card, his Chief of Staff, told him of the second attack on the World Trade Centre as he was waiting to speak at a Florida elementary school.

...

The President recalled: "I had taken a look at the bed which (Laura)
points out was about a 1955 roll-out, pull-out. I said: ‘No, we're not. I'm really tired. I've had a heck of a day and I'm going to sleep in my own bed.' "


At 11.30pm, they were sound asleep. "I can hear a guy breathing quite
heavily. 'Mr President! Mr President! There's an unidentified aircraft heading toward the White House.' So we get out of bed. I'm actually in my running shorts with a T-shirt, old shoes. Grab Barney, grab Spot (the family dogs). Laura has no contacts, she's holding on to my arm. We get into the elevator, straight down, in towards the conference room.


"And I'm thinking: ‘What the heck is going on?' Then an enlisted fellow walks in and goes: ‘Mr President, good news. It's one of our own.' "


...

What were YOU doing at 11:30 p.m. ET on 9/11/01? I was wide awake.
