NYT: In a State of Anxiety? No, but Anxious About His Age

[Rose Siding]

President Bush spent the weekend in the warm winter sunshine at his Texas ranch, where he rode his bike, entertained friends and cleared his head. It had been a long week: the State of the Union address on Tuesday, then trips to pitch his "American competitiveness initiative" in Tennessee, Minnesota, New Mexico and Texas from Wednesday to Friday.
....
"I'm a bike guy, and I like to plug in music on my iPod when I'm riding along to hopefully help me forget how old I am," Mr. Bush said at the 3M headquarters near St. Paul on Thursday.....

Five years into his presidency, and now five months shy of his 60th birthday, the state of Mr. Bush's state of mind seems to be a sense of contentment about the present and some apprehension about his post-White House future.
....
His staff members say he is in a positive mood, a change from the short fuse he seemed to be on during the most intense days of the C.I.A. leak investigation and the response to Hurricane Katrina last fall.
....
"I found that part of keeping a positive outlook is to kind of burn off that excess energy, you know what I'm saying?" he said in Kansas.

He's CONTENT with the present? CONTENT! So what does concern him? His Own Damn Future. There is something very wrong with him.

4. "Cleared his head"

Boy, that's rich. There isn't anything in there to clear. :rofl:

5. No heart, no soul, no conscience

No content to him, just blank and unfeeling contentment.
