Faced with challenges before, Bush has met them with his characteristic mix of action and resolve, and he has been following a similar pattern. At the very moment that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld came under the heaviest fire from lawmakers (and from many in the Bush Administration) for mishandling the prison fiasco, Bush paid a rare visit to the morning meeting of his senior White House staff members and told them to button up.
