"You mean they have a domestic policy?"
That quote from a prominent conservative, Michael Tanner, sums up the growing realization among conservatives that Our Dear Embattled Leader really has no ideas for domestic policy and he and his current minions are not likely to develop any. Looking back at this administration it is eminently clear that once they had succeeded in diverting the national treasury into their favorite corporate treasuries they had no further ideas.
Tanner, an author of the failed Social Security plan that was Bush's No. 1 domestic priority last year, lamented the lack of a "policy czar" setting clear goals. He described the administration as "exhausted" and "rudderless" on the domestic front.When you have few ideas beyond getting elected, you find that being preznit really is hard work.
"There doesn't seem to be an endpoint for what they're doing," he said. "They need to decide what they're going to do for the next three years…. Staff changes are necessary but not sufficient. If they're just rearranging chairs and office plaques, that's not going to do anything."
