Isn't it obvious that Bush is tired of being president, and Cheney isn't that happy either? I think they all wanted to win last year because they thought they would get a mandate (cheat themselves into a mandate) and then have it all their way. They forgot to reckon with their own incompetence. It isn't fun to be the boss when you don't know what you are doing, and they never did. They thought being president was about getting all the perks, when actually it's about governing--work! Work! Can you imagine? And Bush hates to actually work--that's obvious. So, yes, we're stuck with them, unless we impeach them. That would be the most practical thing to do at this point. Throw the bums out and get someone who wants to do the job. They could post an ad on Craigslist.
