Bush the loser

As thousands today, I saw the picture of Bush writing a note to Condoleezza Rice about going to the bathroom, and I didn't really think much of it. I figured, he needed to go, and maybe this time we shouldn't all gang up on him for that. After all, it's happened to me several times to have the urge to go to the bathroom and not being able to wait anymore.

But then I read this recounting of the scene:

"Tensions were running high as the world's most powerful men and women discussed international security and the future of the United Nations."

At the high-pressure meeting, President George W. Bush sat stern faced, surrounded by top diplomats and the largest gathering of world leaders in history."

The US President, an outspoken critic of the UN in recent years, picked up his pencil and wrote a short note to his Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. Around him, the UN delegation wondered what secrets he was passing to his most trusted advisor.

"But the most pressing matter on the President's mind was nothing to do with international security - he was desperate for the toilet. "

'I think I may need a bathroom break. Is this possible?' he wrote.

I finally decided to post about it because this is just the latest example of the kind of failure this guy is. He's just a mask, he's not the guy in charge, he's just the real president's "face," if you will. How else would you explain his total lack of interest, his total detachment from what's going on around him?

It's Katrina's reaction all over again. Something important is going on, but I don't care. I'll just go on minding my own business. Someone else surely will take care of it for me. Like daddy and mommy always do. Karl, or Dick, or Condi, or Karen. Someone will make sure I look good again. I can keep on dreaming about the rapture.

What a total loser.
