Breeze: You missed my point entirely. I was not drawing a parallel between Bush and Obama, I was drawing a parallel between the media lionizing Bush in 2000 and Obama in 2008.

I don’t take anything away from Obama in terms of intelligence, nor do I grant anything to Bush in terms of intelligence. I saw the real Dubya during his time as governor of Texas and that was quite enough for me, thank you very much.

The point I was making was that the people and the media of this country will turn on you dirt quick and, Obama isn’t showing significant progress real soon, things might get a mite ugly.

On a personal note, I referred to you as a buffoon earlier, and I apologize. I had my Irish up, but that’s no excuse and I was out of line.
