In a perfect world.

Everything that Our Dear Embattled Leader says would make perfect sense and comfort people. Charlie Reese, in the Memphis Flyer, shows us why this just isn't so.
This refusal to admit mistakes and to be held accountable is what gives the Bush administration the eerie atmosphere of being totally disconnected from reality. Whatever Bush says or does is always correct and successful, no matter how copious the evidence to the contrary. Members of the administration just don't talk about the weapons or the ties to al-Qaeda anymore. You must be mistaken, they say. We went to war because we love the Iraqi people so much, we wanted them to have a democratic government.

Excuse me. You want me to believe that you love a people - who for 13 years we bombed and impoverished with sanctions - so much that you will gladly spend 2,000 American lives to relieve them of a dictator the U.S. once supported? This is insane.
Oh, no. Our Dear Embattled Leader would never be insane. He would merely be on vacation, until they can balance his "meds" again.
