Bush comes from a tradition where dealing fast and loose in the boardroom, and greasing the palms of friends and friends of friends, is the norm. It's kind of a parallel dimension where men like Ken Lay and Jeffery Skilling crisscross our dimension like harvest machines working a field of ripe corn. When confronted with the damage they do, these folks appear genuinely puzzled - and they really are. They are psychologically incapable of feeling or understanding our outrage at behavior they consider completely normal. It is from this dimension that George W. Bush comes to the task at hand.
