To the extent there has been any hesitation at all by Bush and Rove in their hard run to the left it is due to the influence of so-called "unappeasables" who voted for him in 2000 but who are expressing grave reservations about doing so again. We are his conscience, that nagging voice that demands accountability.

The simpering, fawning, kowtowing excuse-all sycophants who hang on his every word and call for the heads of his conservative critics--they are the real danger both to his presidency and to this nation. They demand no accountability whatsoever and are content to allow him to distribute breezy platitides to chew on rather than give them the meat of responsible self-government.

I personally like Bush a great deal. He's a wonderful, caring, capable, and decisive man. But he has been ill-served by his legion of blind-worship fans. It is my fondest desire that he be marked in history as one of our great presidents. Unfortunately he has just about squandered his best chances to reach even the second tier.

We "unappeasables" are Bush's best and most loyal friends--because we're willing to tell him his breath stinks and his fly is undone while all his swooning fans bat their eyelashes and beg to be allowed to kiss his Texas boots.

Mega bump!

LOL! Say.......the next time George invites you two best buddies of his to dinner, can I come??

Oh.....and don't tell him his breath stinks, OK? Just hand him a piece of gum, or a mint. It's just a TOUCH more polite..... ;o)
