Bush the bully. Love to hate the guy! His easy, eerie rise to power always seemed a response by Clio, the Muse of History, to a particular dilemma, namely, how do we get rid of Saddam Hussein and his evil regime? Now that that task is accomplished, it's better to move on, and get a more judicious leader in there before we start a premature war on the Korean peninsula that gets everyone in Seoul killed, or before the economy is badly damaged.
The Rick Santorum scandal, featuring arrogant, noxious comments aimed at gays, and a possible bind for the Republican party, seems to be fading, but for the life of me, I can't figure out why. Where is the outrage? Or is it STILL OK in America to diss gays? Never mind, I know that answer....
Given my own problems of no work at work, and seeing people lose jobs, I'm increasingly alarmed by job losses - the official statistics may be underplaying the story. Ever cocky, Bush should worry.
