That is somebody who doesn't care about the big picture, instead only focuses on his small circle of benefactors. There are countless areas where Bush policy was, shall we say, "questionable"... and when you look into it you discover an FOB stands to win. These areas are:as a whole in mind. For example, in the case of Snow, Bush had a tax cut agenda in mind which benefitted his constituency, and when qualified economist after economist refused to back that agenda, instead of doing the honest thing and rethinking his tax plan, Bush found a "lesser" candidate that *would* buy into his plan, and now we have John Snow, a former railroad executive as Treasury Secretary. Bob Rubin Snow IS NOT. Anyway Bush's preoccupation with Cronyism seems to make him lean to whoever lines his pocketbook as the right approach for the country.
