Larry: Truth be told, it’s more than just not spreading the
message well. That’s the libDem excuse. You gotta walk the walk as
well as talk the talk. We can forgive his malapropisms, his unease
with the press and his lack of imagination in speeches. I could
forgive all that and leap to help fix the broken wheels on the
bandwagon if only he’d do some of the stuff we need that should be
terribly easy, especially for a second-termer.
Maybe that’s the problem: Bush does reasonably well on the hard
stuff and completely blows it on the easy ones. It’s like he
doesn’t want to be bothered. Josh Bolton should talk him into
picking some of the low-hanging fruit on the political tree. We’d
all be better off.
And then he can get on to the tougher ones. I’m paying well over
$3 a gallon for super premium to feed the Mustang. How long can the
economy keep heading up while we’re sending the Saudis, et al.,
every dollar we can stuff into a gas pump? And just how many nukes
will ol’ Mahmoud have in a year or less?
