"Reminds me of Bush before the 2000 election"

Bush seems to be very flexible about principles when he wants to do something in particular. Like he is all for individual property rights, unless he wants to build a stadium on your land. Then he is all for condemning the land for the common good. He is all for the free market, unless he wants to suck up to a voting block that wants a tariff on steel imports. He is all for states rights, unless it means he won't be elected. He is all for government being held accountable, unless it means his administration. And so on.

Do you realize that all of his papers as governor are sealed up, with no access to anyone, in his dad's library? As far as I know, this has never happened with a governor of Texas. It makes you wonder what he is trying to hide.

Yet his supporters have bought into the myth that he is committed to principles. And they might be right. But the principle is "whatever is good for Dubya Bush, screw everyone else"...
