Steady Leadership
William Saletan article in Slate says what I've been thinking about bush all along. His leadership is steady in times of change, since no event has any bearing on his policies. Economy good? Time for a tax cut. Economy bad? Time for a tax cut. Saddam is a threat? We should invade. Saddam wasn't a threat after all? We should have invaded. You get the picture.

I sense a strong lack of support for our President--you anti-American, un-patriotic, anti-freedom, hippie, gun-hating, baby-killing, godless, commie bastard. According to Hannity, you just don't get it.

According to Hannity (by extrapolation), the koala which line the dusty outback of Australia "don't get it." Of course, in that case, it'd be the one time he was RIGHT. It's probably why we never hear him say anything about the political leanings of those cutesy but aggressive marsupials; the man loves LYING too much.

steady leadership changes to what is best for the contry, that the ironic thing about what he says.

My favorite line: "Not Bush. He's impervious to evidence."
Bush exemplifies what's wrong with Christianity: too much hope and too much faith. "oh! things will show up eventually." We need some more truthful Presidents that are blunt with the American public. So rather than us distrusting the administration and panicing, we can just know the truth and panic anyways.

Heh... I've heard that before. Hell, that line may encompass the entirety of the GOP these days. Although, I'm not so sure we can blame Bush's policy on Christianity, Roc.
I mean, considering that Bush is a warmongering, isolationist, economic Darwinist who doesn't know Deuteronomy from the epistles, I think his particular brand of "leadership" has little to do with the teachings of Christ and his Apostles. It probably has more to do with a rich boy's legacy of despotism finally coming to a head. That and knowing which side of his bread the military-industrial complex has buttered.
Remember: Jimmy Carter was a born-again fundamentalist from the Bible Belt. ‘nuff said.
