Bush's Brezhnev period

    Though Bush is discredited and dismissed by millions, the media still laps up their spoon-fed pablum

    "But Bush may have become such a universally tainted figure that almost anything he says, especially in the language of idealism, is now discredited."

    True enough in the eyes of ever more millions, but NPR still seems to start every morning with 'President Bush said..,' at which point, I turn it off.

    At this point, who cares what the intellectually challenged 'president' said? Does it have any significance whatsoever?
