'The Decider' Decides Again
Friday October 5, 2007
Not content to merely be "The Decider" or "The Commander Guy," President Bush has now declared himself "The Decision-Maker."
During a speech this week in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Bush helpfully explained, "My job is a decision-making job. And as a result, I make a lot of decisions."

I thought this quote from the speech was revealing. His insecurity is only exceeded by his bad judgment:
“I delegate to good people. I always tell Condi Rice, `I want to remind you, Madam Secretary, who has the Ph.D. and who was the C student. And I want to remind you who the adviser is and who the president is.’
“I got a lot of Ph.D.-types and smart people around me who come into the Oval Office and say, `Mr. President, here’s what’s on my mind.’ And I listen carefully to their advice. But having gathered the device (sic), I decide, you know, I say, `This is what we’re going to do.’ And it’s `Yes, sir, Mr. President.’ And then we get after it, implement policy.”
Please make it stop. Please.
