Bush, in short-sleeved shirt, jeans and working boots, is a confident cuss, arguing, more or less, that feelings, his own particularly, are a lot more important than such things as facts, knowledge and history.

The Gut Player and the Textbook Guy
By Richard Reeves


I haven't read the Woodward book yet but these snippets Reeves takes from the book fit my picture of Bush, almost to a T. His arrogance and his "instincts" will, as I've said repeatedly, cost us all down the road. Perhaps Iraq, perhaps later on. But the mix of the two is combustible.

imo that is a very succint description of this administration and fits perfectly with the general Nixonian flavor exhibited so far.
