The Price of Loyalty

[bobquasit]

From CNN:

[Former Treasury Secretary Paul] O'Neill compares Bush's presence at Cabinet meetings to "a blind man in a room full of deaf people."

Commerce Secretary Don Evans, a longtime Bush friend who was chairman of his 2000 campaign, disputed that account Sunday.

"He drives the meeting, asks tough questions. He likes dissent," Evans told CNN's "Late Edition."

Evans continued, "He has an eagle eye, and a kung-fu grip. His knowledge of military strategy is only surpassed by his mercy and compassion. He has the heart of a lion, and the strength of ten men. He has the purity of Sir Galahad. At night he secretly places coins under the pillows of children who've lost their teeth. He knows if you've been bad or good, because John Ashcroft tells him. He once shot a man just for snoring too loud, but that man was a terrorist, or going to become one some day. Jesus is his co-pilot, and Moses is his flight crew. He is your loving Big Daddy, America. Can I go now?"

Seriously, does anyone believe that shit?

I think that last paragraph may have been a bit over the top on Evans' part. :)

The "He shot a man for snoring too loud, but he was a terrorist" bit
made me laugh out loud.

The whole O'Neill business is, well, amusing. Guy is essentially being
called a traitor now by Bush loyalists.

But none of this is going to make a whole lot of difference in the Red States,
is it?
