" How's he do? "

He has a complete disconnect between all the little dots on his screen and can't or won't try to put them together.

Immediately after 9-11-01 , the free world at large was issuing statements to the effect that humanity , or the free world , or even Christianity were attacked and we may be on a path towards a war of civilizations.

Those same countries came together as they did during the Gulf War 1 and we were united towards a common enemy.

Terrorism - So far so good.

As things moved along, the rest of the world observed America, under Bush, begin to resume a unilateral inside - out view of the world that he had started well before that fateful day.This reached its peak when Bush basically read the riot act to the UN.

This is having conflicting repercussions, as one train of thought is to say," yea - your right - let's roll ", and the other saying " who is this masked man? - the Lone Ranger? "

So it's looked upon by some as hypocrisy .You want this but you don't want that. We're a world community unless that's a problem for you. We'll find some way to convince OUR people that it's your way or the hi-way .

Not going to work in this information age.People all over the world see this in real time today, and even they seem to be able to connect the dots better than Bush, and certainly better than SDB.

How'd I Do?
