BUSH: I will leave the presidency with my head held high.
Maybe this is the kind of nonsense Gibson had in mind when he asked, "Is the president too much in a bubble?" To which Bush responded:
BUSH: I mean, believe me you understand what's going on in the world. This idea about how the President doesn't understand this, that, or the other, just simply is not the case. I mean, there's a lot of information that comes through the White House.
Yeah, no doubt Cheney’s there every morning to provide the president with "information" about how well it’s all going. No doubt that makes it easy to leave the White House with your head held high, even after you’ve wrecked everything in sight.
That, plus a fawning press that would never dream of being so rude as to interrupt your fantasy with the cognitive dissonance provoked by a tough question or two.
Lordy, lord. Take me back to my home planet, please.
This one’s way too messed up!
