Matt Bai, of the NYTimes Magazine just said on cspan that GWB campaigned in 2000 on changing the tone in Washington - and he did - not for the better!!! The polarization that now has drifted all the way down to the local level is Bush’s fault!!!!!

UNNbelievable!

This journalist is trying to comport himself as non-partisan, but that statement just gave away his bias.

The dinosaur media is all over the new Greenspan book because it criticizes the Bush administration.  What I heard once, and only once, is that one of Greenspan's main complaints is that Bush's strategy of non-confrontation in order to "geta along," IOW to change the tone, was a huge mistake.

I agree.  That's why I hope he nominates Ted Olsen for AG.

I hope President Bush plays serious hard ball from now til January 2009! BJC was still writing orders on 19 and 20 Jan 2001.

BTW,
Secretary Gates gave a terrific interview with Chris Wallace. Quiet, positive answers, in the Cheney style of forcefulness.
