WTF????

WASHINGTON — Is George W. Bush about to start a political comeback?

Written off as one of the worst presidents in U.S. history when he left office, the 63-year-old Bush has been keeping a low profile, fading from view as the country turned its attention to his successor, President Barack Obama .

Now, some events might be turning in Bush's favor just as he and his family emerge to tell their side of the story, first with the release this week of Laura Bush's memoir, "Spoken From the Heart," then in November with the release of his book, "Decision Points."

The guy is at best an idiot. At worst culpably criminal in the actions of his regime. Pampered and privileged, he never worked a real job in his life. His 19th century Polyanna- manifest destiny- white bread Xtian belief system set true democracy back a decade. If he's proud of his accomplishments he needs counseling. His supporters need serious counseling.

His regime is directly and indirectly responsible for the quagmire we're in now. Still he smirks. The only way out is throwing dollars at a myriad of problems. Any administration would be forced into these bitter solutions, whichever political party had inherited the mess. Voters for the most part suffer from short term memory....

We revere Reagan, whose regime put us on a road of dependence to powerful banking and big business interests, and now we're looking with fondness at the Bush years? Only the rich survived unscathed. The working middle class is screwed on every turn.

We'll never get back to "the way things were".

Lieing and Tigers and bikers, oh my!

Reading about Tiger's golf return debut later this week. Everybody is clucking about his choice for caddy, Jesse James. Har! What is it about group-think mentality which has a hard time accepting the human conditions of power, lust, and greed? If you remove the sexcapades from Tiger and Jesse (hey, they're "only guys"), the public would still have this warm fuzzy ideal. Tiger is an upstanding, soft spoken family man, and Jesse a "gee he's okay for a tattooed biker, see how he loves his nice actress wifey?" Take scandal out of the mix, they're still our darlings. What they did respectively is obscene, and a mockery of family values, yet the public will soon forgive these media populists, and go on to more whoofs and tweets. Sex is power, and some are just too greedy in the candy shop...
