Okay, it took the GOP and other right wingers six years to figure out that Bush is deeply flawed. But, now they're really getting nasty about their leader. In case you missed Bob Novak's Thanksgiving gift to George W. Bush, here's a flavor:
The treatment of his war minister connotes something deeply wrong with George W. Bush's presidency in its sixth year. Apart from Rumsfeld's failures in personal relations, he never has been anything short of loyal in executing the president's wishes. But loyalty appears to be a one-way street for Bush. His shrouded decision to sack Rumsfeld after declaring that he would serve out the second term fits the pattern of a president who is secretive and impersonal.Sounds like Dick Cheney is crankier than usual:
It is hard to find anyone in the Bush administration who endorses the way Rumsfeld was handled. His friend and comrade, Vice President Cheney, is reported to be profoundly disturbed. But even before the election, Cheney appeared melancholy. A high-ranking administration official who visited the vice president then reported him to be nothing like the upbeat Cheney of earlier years in this administration.Cheney upbeat? Sure, he was the puppet master. But, he's led us to weakness.
digg this!
