Naaah! Dubya just outfoxed Witch Pelosi, by taking away her favorite
target ;-)

Not their MO. His administration actually _prefers_ distraction and
sharp division. It isn't for the reason you suggest.

Here's my guess, since we are guessing. It is that Bush is confused,
still believes he is god's messenger, and his megalomania makes him
fundamentally incapable of taking any blame for anything at all. So
he is striking out at the only "possibility" he sees that must have
been the reason for this downfall. It can't be him, so...

Jon,
Did you hear Mr. Bush's press conference this afternoon, where he
called the election "a whuppin'?"

I thought he acquitted himself quite well. He fully accepted the
blame -- not a megalomanic at all. He's getting better at this public
speaking-thing.

I've often disagreed with the President and his policies, but I've
never ever gotten the megalomanic vibe. I suspect the country just
doesn't understand Texans. Texas is bigger, and Texans are better --
you've just got to understand that going in. :-)

ISTM Rumsfeld's been sacrificed, an offering on the altar of his most
outspoken critic -- Pelosi.

Cheers,
James Arthur
