Every time George W. Bush comes out and gives absolute public support for somebody working for him, that person is inevitably out of job in a few days. It happened to Mike Brown, former head of FEMA. Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans on August 29, 2005. Bush came out in public support of Brown a few days later, and Brown was gone by September 12, 2005. It happened to Donald Rumsfeld, former Secretary of Defense. Bush, in an admittedly blatant lie to the entire country, told reporters on November 1, 2006, that Rumsfeld would not be replaced and would be with Bush until the end of his presidency. On November 8, 2006, the day after the election, Rumsfeld was gone. The same thing apparently has happened to Paul Wolfowitz. Last week, Bush supported him 100%, even in the midst of this bizarre World Bank scandal. Seems, though, that Wolfowitz will be resigning in June. Alberto Gonzales should start packing his bags, because George Bush has given him his total support in the midst of the scandal involving the firing of numerous attorneys in the Attorney General's office. The Senate is ready to enter a symbolic no confidence vote on Gonzales, and it really is only a matter of time before Gonzales will not be able to function at all. I give him 2 weeks at most. Why can't we get Bush to give his entire cabinet, and Vice President Cheney, a big public announcement of total unequivocal support, and maybe they will all quit by July 4th, and we can really have a great celebration!! Come on George, I dare you! Your hollow words of praise are truly a curse on anyone and anything they touch.
