DECONSTRUCTING GEORGE
Monday's prez presser served to illuminate the degree to which bush is out of touch with the basic facts or intentionally denies them. So what else is new?
This is a nice job of deconstruction by Fred Kaplan in Slate
What a Moronic Press Conference
It is a good refresher course. In the midst of so much addled talk one tends to lose the thread of truth. Goebbels was right.
Actually, it is not hard to deconstruct george. He is built simply and without a lot of competence.
This is the same conference where he (I am sure) inadvertently admitted no connection between the 'war on terra' and Iraq as well as the absence of WMD.
I happened to see that portion on C-Span. I could hear Rove and the others slapping their foreheads when he said it.
Yes. I occasionally watch the unwatchable to make sure that I am still correct in my intellectual and emotional responses to this child-president.
I am suitably reinforced at each dip into the kiddy pool.
