Interesting...
Of course, having the good fortune to work for a decent, honest, scandal-free president makes his job a tad easier..
Very interesting article. But I would love to know what sort of thing goes in the microwave.
If you go see Andy at his desk, it looks like he's not doing anything," says Andrew Natsios, a close friend of Card's who is head of the Agency for International Development. "It's almost empty, there's no paper anywhere. But he's created this whole system in his head with this mind discipline of his."
No wonder he's still there.
I found this very interesting (long, but informative -- close-up inside view of working with W).

Sorry for the triple! I don't know what happened.
Thanks for the ping. Interesting read.
**chuckles at use of 'everyman' and how it will anger libs**
BUMP!
Very interesting, thanks for the ping.
good read
Thanks for the ping
Thanks for the ping there is something very appealing about Andy Card I think I warmed to him first from one of the earlier Barney Cam he came over as very natural.
What a fabulously detailed article. I like Andy Card and his immacculate kitchen. Did you notice near the end of the article the author of this piece just had to take a couple of digs at the President on his treatment of Card? But there is no doubt that Andy would have been gone long ago if he thought that W was mistreating him.
It is interesting to speculate on all the ways Card's lengthy and detailed memory could serve the President in the cut-throat DC world. Not only can he catch all those javelins, he remembers who, what, when, & where they were thrown.
I really like Andy, he's absolutely perfect for that job and I'll bet that President Bush loves him.
3 pings to you too ;^)
his sister's daughter rides Hunter/Jumper with mine, she's a very nice person, just like her brother...rto
Nice post. Another good read about W, Andy and many others in the White House is "A Matter of Character" by Ronald Kessler.
That reminds me of the Sesame Street character "Vincent Twice, Vincent Twice" who repeated everything and was styled to resemble Vincent Price. Have a great day!
I love bugmenot, by the way...although some of the pseudo emails and passwords provided have made me blush. The ones that say something like quitasking@noneofyourbusiness.com crack me up, though.
Keeping this in his head also keeps handwritten notes from being subpoenaed. The dems would DIE for any piece of paper they can find after President Bush leaves office. They know he's going to have a legacy of being one of our greatest presidents and they would love to have any little scrap of anything in writing, to try and make something out of nothing. They've already requested tons of notes, etc., so I think this is a GOOD thing that Andy has this type of memory.
