Since perception is what drives public opinion (and believe me I'm in a position to say you're 100% correct), why are you purposely or accidentally helping to perpetuate the perception of the president as incompetent and "out to lunch" via your posts?
Because if we can't see the problems clearly, we can't formulate good strategies. Dubya's leadership has taken severe hits. Too much of FR can't see this clearly, which compromises their observations.
