The best part of that scene was left out. Leo, the combat veteran, talks Barlett down from the "kill 'em all. Let God sort 'em out." Leo knows first hand where that can lead.
its the reaction you get from fear and anger. Fear prevents you from actings. This is a man that sounds like he is going to act...which is why leo looked so shocked.
A proprtional response - one of my favourite episodes - so well done

Why can't we have someone like this NOW? We'd be celebrating 9/12 not wetting our tightiewhities over 9/11.

Bartlet was personally aggrieved because he know one of the soldiers killed.
But the look on Leo's face is amazing. He's genuinely stunned that Bartlet would talk like that.

@Gracie0935
If I recall correctly, I think that scene you mentioned was in the following episode "A Proportional Response"
regardless of that being right or wrong, I do like that part.

You're no doubt right. So much great writing and acting, easy to confuse the episodes.

@Gracie0935 Agreed, this show had so many amazing moments throughout its seven years run and as stated, all due to great writing and acting.

Its ironic that this sort of reaction is exactly what you get from fear.
