I've seen him outside his current context, and while I rarely agree with much of what he says, he's not a complete idiot. He's a LOT smarter than he's looking in press conferences these days. But that's what Bush does - he makes you dumber. I’d give anything if I could sit in on Tony Snow’s conversations with his wife when he gets home in the evening.

MR. SNOW: No. Q: The President – MR. SNOW: But thank you for asking. Q: No, no, I’m going on. MR. SNOW: Oh, I’m sure you are." To me, the above exchange represents exactly why this administration is viewed as so completely self-absorbed and out of tune with the American people. “Q: Do we have one-man rule in this country?

MR. SNOW: No.

Q: The President –

MR. SNOW: But thank you for asking.

Q: No, no, I’m going on.

MR. SNOW: Oh, I’m sure you are.”

(Constitution, Article II, Section 2)." The President is neither the commander in chief of Congress nor of the America people. The intent of the Founding Fathers was a chief clerk, not a European-style ruler. In fact, the first constitution of the United States - the current version is actually the second attempt a uniting the states - didn't even have an executive branch!

I wonder - does anyone on this administration know what anyone else is saying or doing? (Other than The Decider, of course, who knows nothing and says too much....) Oh, and did you leave off the other half of the second word in your new feature title? ;-) Great stuff, Denny. I wonder – does anyone on this administration know what anyone else is saying or doing?
