Bush is as stubborn and clueless as ever



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

NY Times does a profile on Bush and his White House staff in light of the controversies swirling around them over so many issues. Bottom line is that Bush is completely unphased by all of it. Your president is clueless and ever so stubborn in the face of huge disasters he has both precipitated and overseen. The piece is titled "Bush is Business as Usual Despite Party Grumbles"...I would add "and as Nation Crumbles":

Inside the White House, the staff is exhausted and the mood is defiant. Republicans are clamoring for a new chief of staff, the West Wing just cut its losses on a deal that would have given a Dubai company control of some terminal operations at six American ports, and President Bush's approval rating is at a record low.

But senior staff members insist that Mr. Bush is in good spirits, that calls from his party to inject new blood into the White House make him ever more stubborn to keep the old, and that he has become so inured to outside criticism that he increasingly tunes it out. There is no sense of crisis, they say, even over rebellious Republicans in Congress, because the White House has been in almost constant crisis since Sept. 11, 2001, and Mr. Bush has never had much regard for Congress anyway.
There is something pathological in Bush's inability to deal with reality. He's just never wrong in his mind. It's really frightening and another reason why he is THE WORST PRESIDENT EVER.
