He’s got to stop listening to that man in the bushes …
What a difference a camera angle can make. I saw other angles on this event -- Bush speaking on Wednesday in the Rose Garden -- but until I saw this one I didn’t understand why he wasn’t making any sense. Now it’s clear that Dick Cheney, over there lurking in the bushes, is the author of the nonsense, and somehow he’s beaming it into the president’s head.
This photo was on the front page of Thursday’s NY Times. It was taken while Bush was declaring that even if he vetoes money for the troops in Iraq, it’s the Democrats in Congress who are responsible for failing to support the troops. Sorry, Sir, a veto is a veto. You are responsible for what you do.
