"He's surrounded by people who agree with him," said Light.

Gee, I don't recall this was a problem when Bubba was in office. Or that anyone in the MSM had a cow when not one Toon apparatchik resigned after Toon looked them in the eye and lied to them.

"If people stay that long, group-think can set in, and that's dangerous for a president," Gergen said.

That's funny David Gergen. When your buddy Clinton was in office you thought his enablers were "a loyal staff."

This is a good and significant point. To me, it means that Bush has a coherent
and believable policy, foreign and domestic, enough so anyway to hold together a good top cadre of men and women able to withstand the cowardly and constant attacks of mentally deficient and traitorous fellow citizens who are their inferiors.

Well, they've been doing a great job.

Wouldn't know it from reading the papers, though.

And not one dead, a stark contrast to the attrition of the Clinton years.

Foreign concepts to the MSM.

One person that needs to go is McClellan...Most limp wristed Press Secretary in my life. I want Ari back... he made the daily briefing fun when he would slap Helen around.

Jennifer Loven's record is that of a biased democrat operative with a porn-star's name.

"They've been there long enough to qualify for the Medicare prescription drug benefit," quipped Paul Light, a professor of organizational studies at New York University. The big question is how much longer Bush's inner circle can hold together.

About 3 years and 3 weeks.

Three years at the most I'd say.

"WASHINGTON - Loyalty and continuity have marked the Bush White House since early on. After two wars, devastating strikes by terrorists and hurricanes..."

It really makes me angry that the administration has failed to keep control of the language and terminology of this conflict. It's now almost a univerally accepted concept that Bush has 'fought two wars' - whereas the reality is that the United States has led an international coalition in two campaigns or operations (if you must) in the Global War on Terror. There have been other smaller operations, many of them covert. This notion of two wars does not necessarily allow people to understand that there will likely be continued operations over the long term, possibly decades.

Sorry for the rant, but I feel the words are important, because they mean certain things.

Semper Fi,

David Gergan, after a career of straddling the fence so vigorously that he no longer qualifies as male OR female, weighs in with another profundity of elephantine proportions.
