This blog used to be about politics. Not so much anymore as I have worked through my fascination with that subject. It now seems appropriate that with a new president and the end of the Bush nightmare that I move on to new subjects that are more in line with my current interests. I may still occasionally express an opinion about political matters but for the most part I will be commenting on music, photography and personal observations. Thank you for reading.

Because I could...
 
At 87, Wallace still tells it like it is - The Boston Globe:

"Q. President George W. Bush has declined to be interviewed by you. What would you ask him if you had the chance?

A. What in the world prepared you to be the commander in chief of the largest superpower in the world? In your background, Mr. President, you apparently were incurious. You didn't want to travel. You knew very little about the military. . . . The governor of Texas doesn't have the kind of power that some governors have. . . . Why do you think they nominated you? . . . Do you think that has anything to do with the fact that the country is so [expletive] up?"


I know why he was chosen as the nominee, because he just accepted that he deserved to be president because of who he was. That, and he had no personal agenda other than self-glorification, others could happily make policy while the boy king played with his toys. George Bush was to be nothing more than a Mr. President of America pagent winner who would attend ribbon cuttings and make prepared speeches in support of pro-corporate policies.

An honest answer from our president would go something like this:

"I was qualified to be president because I was wealthy, had a good name that people recognized and could rally the Republican faithful, and I had connections to powerful people that could make it happen."

George W. Bush is president because it was handed to him, and he was too convinced of his own superiority to know that he would be an awful president.
