Am I understanding these numbers? I read four to 6 books a week but I am only running my little elf household and a community depression/bipolar/anxiety group.....that is all! Group is once a week....Maybe this explains a few lapses in our strategies world wide.

This is puzzling.
I never believed he was a dolt.
Intelligent politicians pretending to be anti-intellectual to catch the right wing working class vote are standard here too.
But history books?
They tell us that things never work out as you expect.
Unless they did?
Maybe it's simpler than that? The application of force to back up a black and white world view; that and the uniforms.There was an argument made somewhere for an all round presidential pardon (from Bush), as a less bad option for dealing with the present lot.
It saves Obama from a difficult choice and unfruitful course, and acknowledges that the problems have been systemic.

>The contrast with having briefed his father and Clinton and Gore was so marked. And to be told, frankly, early in the administration, by Condi Rice and [her deputy] Steve Hadley, you know, Don't give the president a lot of long memos, he's not a big reader - well, sh*t. I mean, the president of the United States is not a big reader?

'I was a wartime president, and war is very exhausting.
The president ends up carrying a lot of people's grief in his soul.'

>Less than a month after those Towers came down, a reporter asked what you [GWB] thought we should do.
"We need to counter the shockwave of the evildoer," you replied, "by having individual rate cuts accelerated and by thinking about tax rebates."

That really IS an interesting segue.
I thought you might move from evildoers to the smiting thereof.
