People have been beating up on Bush for so long, I was almost starting to feel sorry for him. Then I heard his ridiculous interview on ABC in which he attempts to avoid all responsibility for his failures.History may treat W better then his approval ratings indicate, but lets at least try to keep the history accurate.

I thought maybe he would be oblivious to history as well as to the present . . . .

I think most are just numb when it comes to W. He has driven the thought from the thoughtful, the spirit from the spirited, the breath from the breathing and the vitality from the economy. He is a life sucking, lying, disgusting excuse for a human.

Why would anyone be surprised when abrogation of personal responsibility is an institutionalised construct of modren society?

The NeoCon rationale for invading Iraq was developed before Bush even took office, independent of intelligence information about Hussein's weapons programs. But Bush is just repeating the old story, which perhaps he might even believe, that the Iraq fiasco was not a failure of a well developed foreign policy strategy but was a result of an intelligence mistake. To admit the truth would put too much of a dent in the overall NeoCon vision of US imperial power undermining any future efforts of rescuscitation.

Wait, hold on. I thought the media was behind Obama. I specifically saw an MSNBC commercial stating that. It was really sick... But how can that be? It isn't like the media would back opposing sides would they? I mean the policies are so different, like night and day, right? It's not like they miraculously come up with the same things as a continuation of policy as the presidents before them either. Just weird how they all follow the same path completely independent of each other and accidentally pick the same people for their administrations.

Joe Klein writes for Time: "At the end of a presidency of stupefying ineptitude, he has become the lamest of all possible ducks." Klein declaims a presidency "that has wobbled between . . . two poles -- overweening arrogance and paralytic incompetence

"The latter has held sway these past few months as the economy has crumbled. It is too early to rate the performance of Bush's economic team, but we have more than enough evidence to say, definitively, that at a moment when there was a vast national need for reassurance, the President himself was a cipher. Yes, he's a lame duck with an Antarctic approval rating -- but can you imagine Bill Clinton going so gently into the night? . . .

"In the end, though, it will not be the creative paralysis that defines Bush. It will be his intellectual laziness, at home and abroad. Bush never understood, or cared about, the delicate balance between freedom and regulation that was necessary to make markets work. He never understood, or cared about, the delicate balance between freedom and equity that was necessary to maintain the strong middle class required for both prosperity and democracy. He never considered the complexities of the cultures he was invading. He never understood that faith, unaccompanied by rigorous skepticism, is a recipe for myopia and foolishness. He is less than President now, and that is appropriate. He was never very much of one."

I don't believe the written word anymore.

So are you not thoughtful, spirited, breathing or vital to the economy or have you let a guy you consider a dumbass ruin your life?

Are you saying that you don't believe that W gave that interview to ABC?

If you don't believe the written word, where do you get information about the world?

Maybe he means the Bible.

Or throws those IRS notices in the trash before opening them like me

But not the wind from the windbags.
