ANDY CARD supports the President [Andy Card has always been a ‘class’ act!]
FORMER BUSH CHIEF: CRITICS WANT FAILURE
By Andrew Miga
Tuesday, April 3, 2007
Congressional critics of President Bush’s Iraq policy “seem to be rooting for failure,” former White House chief of staff Andrew Card said Tuesday. In an interview with The Associated Press, Card said lawmakers’ efforts to mandate withdrawal timelines and threats to cut funding go beyond the scope of their duties. And he blamed critics in both parties for putting a negative slant on the war.
“We should be rooting for success,” Card said. “I’m very upset that I see many of his critics, who are partisans, Republicans or Democrats, who seem to be rooting for failure. You know, they don’t like his plan, therefore they want it to fail.”

MATTHEW DOWD stabs the President in the back and is taken to task for it by Jeffrey Lord
MATTHEW DOWD STOCKMAN
By Jeffrey Lord
Published 4/2/2007 12:08:03 AM
Why are the views of Matthew Dowd a surprise?
To the New York Times, the one-time “top strategist” for President Bush who has now turned on the President because of the Iraq War is a predictable hero, fodder for a front page story (”Ex-Aide Details a Loss of Faith in the President”).
Yet in reading of the defection of one-time Bush loyalist Matthew Dowd, the fact that Dowd “in a wide ranging interview” with Times reporter Jim Rutenberg “called for a withdrawal from Iraq and expressed his disappointment in Mr. Bush’s leadership” should come as no surprise at all. Why?
As Rutenberg’s article makes clear, Dowd was once “a top strategist for the Texas Democrats” who was “impressed by the pledge of Mr. Bush to bring a spirit of cooperation to Washington.” Says Dowd of Bush: “It’s almost like you fall in love, I was frustrated about Washington, the inability for people to get stuff done and bridge divides. And this guy’s personality — he cared about education and taking a different stand on immigration.” Now, the man who, as a Bush strategist in the 2004 Presidential campaign, criticized Democratic nominee Senator John Kerry for proposing “a weak defense” believes that “Kerry was right” about Iraq.
In other words, Matthew Dowd did not support George W. Bush because Dowd was himself a principled conservative. No, Dowd signed on to the Bush effort because, by his own admission, he “fell in love” with Bush’s personality.

THANK YOU for the update on onyx and Howlin’s ‘excellent adventure’!!
They sound as thought they’re having an AWESOME time already . . . You know your vacation is off to a great start when you serendipitously ‘bump into’ the First Lady!!
I can’t wait for a full report!
And since it's going to turn from summer to winter tomorrow, I'm going to put my tank top back in my drawer and put it on to stay nice and warm. :)
Thank you for that wonderful report, BigSky!
I adore you for posting that second article. Thank you so much!
(Rhetorical question).
Doesn't sound like poor Matty is a very well grounded person, does it?
You’re very welcome!
Sounds like they’re going to have a fabulous time. When you talk to them again, tell we all expect to see the pictures posted on the Dose. Some of us have to live through the exciting experiences of others ya know!
I actually read the NYTimes article and here’s the bottom line:
Dowd was, is and always will be a Democrat — he supported President Bush because he LIKED THE MAN not because he liked the man’s politics.
It becomes very clear when you actually read the article that Dowd picked this time to ‘air’ his grievances because he blames the President both for his son’s decision to join the military and for his son’s impending deployment to Iraq . . . Dowd really comes across as a very troubled and WEAK man!
What a difference between his weak spirit and that attitude of a patriot who is PROUD to have a son serving selflessly for our freedom.
Makes you almost feel sorry for him.............almost.
Thank goodness we still have courageous patriots like you, your husband, and your son [mystery and her husband and son also come to mind] . . . This country will rise or fall on the collective backs of its voluntary military and its military families!!
He is a weak man. He certainly doesn’t have the President’s strength.
