Like Father, Like Son

Found this earlier and it's an interesting take on the chimp-in-charge. Also, a link to the 90 page PNAC in pdf.

I went back a few pages and didn't see it posted. If it's a dupe please lock...or delete...or shame me in some way. :-)

Here's another, from the former director of the Central Intelligence Agency, George H.W. Bush:

"I talk regularly with our son. I've been doing that since he was a little kid." This also is from The New York Times, on Sept. 14, 2001.

Then the former president added: "It's not always about policy. It's not, ŒWhat do you think, Dad, I should be doing?' That kind of thing. It is more the relationship of a very close family staying in touch, one with the other."

So the elder Bush, who spent most of his adult life plugging away at one political job or another, wants us to believe he doesn't spent much time discussing policy with his son the president?

Ha! Ha! And ha!

When the time comes to investigate the present Bush administration, trying to determine what went wrong and why, and who was responsible, my advice to the investigators would be to take a very, very close look at George Herbert Walker Bush.

It's impossible for an outsider like me to untangle all the webs of intrigue operating in national politics, but in this case I think a good start would be to look at something called "Project for the New American Century," now known by its detractors as PNAC

1. Poppy: He da man!

Thanks Harley Sorenson! Quintessential BFEE stuff. Also, I like how Poppy forgets that one talk with Dubya - a drunk and drugged Dubya - when the future president is challenged by the future emporer to go mano a mano on the lawn. A very close family staying in touch with one another indeed. Fuckwads, all (in the words of - who was it? - Dame Cath Tizzart, NZ PM a few years back?).
