I absolutely agree with you. Bush has been a big disappointment. He's abandoned the conservative agenda and cannot rally members of his own party.

I really have to wonder what he is thinking. Does he really feel this strongly about this issue or is he just getting really bad advice?

Concerning this story, 'and the hits just keep on coming'.

Is it the beginning of our Balkanization?

Here it is basically. Bush from the beginning has surrounded himself with long time Friend of Family Yes Men. They were basically the same ones that Poppy had and failed. Don't tell him what he needs to know or you will be fired. Tell him only what he wants to hear and he still believes by what he is being told from his chosen that "All is well". I think that is most of his problem. Not a meanness but rather an arrogance that controls his thinking.
