The Houston Chronicle obtained a video of Bush speaking to a Republican fundraiser, where he says that Wall Street got drunk, and now has a hangover. Of course, no mistakes by the "decider," but as with everything, bad decisions made by other people.
And because I haven't posted it in a while....
I found it curious that he wanted to ensure the cameras were off before he made that asinine statement. I think that he knows how horrible he is and that makes me feel sorry for him, in a way--not sympathy or even empathy--but something along the level of the kid who goofs off all semester and then begs for extra credit at the end of the semester.
ReplyDeleteI actually like that metaphor. He omits that his administration (as one C&L poster pointed out) was the bartender and then some, but notwithstanding, that was potentially a very meaningful allusion coming from a former (?) alchoholic.
