New details emerged of a remarkably tumultuous White House meeting on the bailout Thursday. With the session breaking up in disarray, according to two participants, Bush issued an appeal, saying, "Can't we just all go out and say things are OK?" The group around the table, congressional leaders as well as McCain and Obama, spurned the request. The participants spoke on condition of anonymity because the meeting was private.

6. George has trouble with the concepts like "reality".
He seems to think that denying the existence of a problem solves the problem. Reminds me of O'Brien from Orwell's 1984.
