Well, you seem to be slipping up pretty badly
where I'm concerned.

Actually, no, I'm just pointing out that you're
way off base.

Oh, I'm sure you believe they were accurate; I doubt
you'd have made them otherwise.  Trouble is, you
accused me of trying to stir things up in reply to
a post in which that is manifestly not what I was
doing.

And then there was this--

--which is the fuzziest thinking I've come across
in a while here.  Either that, or you have an
exceedingly limited imagination.

With very little difficulty, for example, I can
imagine Bush keeping James Lee Witt as head of
FEMA because of the splendid job he'd done of
reforming the decrepit agency and turning it into
a model of good management.

I can imagine Bush flying immediately to New
Orleans after the hurricane and giving a pep talk
like he did at ground zero after 9/11, then
following through with an eagle eye to make sure
the relief effort was going as it should.

These would have earned high praise from me.

I could go on, but those two examples should suffice.

You seem to think I somehow object to Bush as a
person, regardless of what he does or doesn't do.
But that doesn't make any sense.

I said earlier that I wouldn't care if Bush believed
he was God's messenger to humanity as long as he
behaved like a real man of God and cared for the poor
and the oppressed and pursued peace and justice.
Perhaps you missed that post.
