Thinking About Bush Always Makes The Head Hurt
Thought: Both John Dean and Hunter S. Thompson did opine that Bush was worse than Nixon. Really, doesn't that just say it all? But I am confused. Part of the meme on the Bush admin. is that they are incompetent. Well, if they were, they wouldn't be able to hide any criminal behavior from us (and yet part of me thinks: give it time.) But maybe the "incompetency" masks a deeply sinister criminal operation. Which one is it!?!
It's the same thoughts you have about Karl Rove. Logically, he was just lucky. He BARELY won in 2000, did a wee bit better in 2004... and people were scared shitless in '02 and '04 because of 9-11. 9-11 was the butter on his bread. Without that, would Bush have ever won reelection? No. So Karl Rove: really not that brilliant. But maybe he's lulling me into thinking that... to suprise me with Re-Animated Reagan/Re-Animated Goldwater '08.
You don't know with these peeps whether they are evil, incompetent or both. Nixon was evil. I don't know of a president in modern history more incompetent than George W. Bush... maybe Hoover? (And that's not even modern history.)
BTW, don't watch Karl Rove rap. It'll make you vomit in your mouth.
