George W. Bush's admirers often describe his stand against Saddam Hussein as "Churchillian."
Short, rude, drunk? As far as that goes, sure, he's Churchillian. But he's not even up to the standards of "meet the new Bush, same as the old Bush, fool me...ummm...can't get fooled again"; Bush the Elder may have been evil, but he was somewhat competent.
Tim writes, on behalf of Shrub
"These Evil Doers have nucular weapons of mass destruction." "I know I mispronunciate "nucular." My bad."
I've been amazed that Bush's handlers didn't straighten him out on "nuculur" long ago. Why are they trying to keep him looking ignorant?
