Dimbulb Dubya

George Bush is sui generis, and it's a genus that should be destined for extinction. Bush was never one of you or any other group, silly conservative wankers; Bush is pro Bush, plain and simple. Nothing else matters.

Conservatives ask: Is Bush still one of us? | csmonitor.com
WASHINGTON – From the moment George W. Bush began campaigning for the Oval Office in 1999, White House watchers have wondered what kind of president he would be: The Ronald Reagan of his generation? Like his father, the first President Bush? Perhaps even, in some ways, similar to Bill Clinton?

This year's State of the Union address, which was panned by a chorus of conservative commentators, has intensified the debate about Bush's political philosophy.

The Wall Street Journal editorial page accused President Bush of playing "miniball," code for a Clintonian love of "small political ideas." Robert Novak reported private concern among congressional conservatives that Mr. Bush was moving toward bigger government. George Will called Bush's most memorable line - that America is addicted to oil - "wonderfully useless."
Wonderfully useless--that's a tagline for the Bush presidency if ever there was one. Unfortunately for many of us, he's been worse than useless. May the line of Dubya die out and be relegated to the very bottom of the dustbin of history.
