'One Guy in a Bubble'

By Harold Meyerson
Wednesday, October 20, 2004; Page A27

"I have no outside advice" in the war on terrorism, President Bush told Bob Woodward in December of 2001. In an interview that Woodward revealed to Nicholas Lemann in last week's issue of the New Yorker, Bush insisted that, "Anybody who says they're an outside adviser of this Administration on this particular matter is not telling the truth. First of all, in the initial phase of the war, I never left the compound. Nor did anybody come in the compound. I was, you talk about one guy in a bubble."

Indeed. By every available indication, George W. Bush's is the most inside-the-bubble presidency in modern American history. It's not just that his campaign operatives exclude all but the true believers from his rallies, or that Bush, by the evidence of his debate performances, has grown utterly unaccustomed to criticism.


The problem with this article and the many that have come before it is that many of the Bush supporters don't read. They are completely in the dark and totally dependent on their in-the-bubble president and his cohorts for their information. This nation's future may be dictated by semi illiterates!
