[Hank Rearden]

As far as I can tell, Bush has no vision.

That's a very good way of putting it. Bush copes with events that befall him, but he has no guiding "vision thing", like Reagan did, and his father didn't.

Neither Bush had any inclination to even whittle, much less slash, Big Stupid Government.

I think you are a big stupid pain in the rear, Hank.

On domestic policy, Bush is a Nixon Republican. On foreign policy, he is more like Reagan.
