49 days to go

Bush_disaster In an interview conducted by his sister, GW Bush said he wanted to be remembered “as a person who, first and foremost, did not sell his soul in order to accommodate the political process.”

“I came to Washington with a set of values, and I’m leaving with the same set of values,” Said Bush. “And I darn sure wasn’t going to sacrifice those values; that I was a President that had to make tough choices and was willing to make them. I surrounded myself with good people. I carefully considered the advice of smart, capable people and made tough decisions.”

Matthew Yglesias comments: Unlike many things that come out of his mouth, this is basically true. Bush considered the advice of smart, capable people such as Colin Powell, Richard Clarke, Rand Beers, Paul O’Neal, Christie Todd Whitman, etc. and he chose to regret ignore it. These were tough choices. The destinies of billions of people around the world were in one way or another effected. Hundreds of thousands of lives lay directly in the balance. And rather taking the advice of smart, capable people Bush decided to take the advice of dumb, inept people. And he did it, as he says, because he was following his values — immoral values that he he shared with the people on whose counsel he preferred to rely. The results have been disastrous and are plain to see

Goddess of Democracy

Goddess_of_democracy The Goddess of Democracy also known as the Goddess of Democracy and Freedom, the Spirit of Democracy, and the Goddess of Liberty, was a 10-meter-tall statue created during the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989.

The statue was constructed in only four days out of styrofoam and papier-mâché over a metal armature by students of the Central Academy of Fine Arts. The students decided to make the statue as large as possible so the government would be unable to dismantle it. The government would either have to destroy the statue — an action which would potentially fuel further criticism of its policies — or leave it standing

In the fall of Bush's discontent, as he struggles for relevance in the waning days of his term, he can take solace in the changes he has wrought in the Supreme Court. For Bush, the better news is that while he has about 15 months left in the Oval Office, his nominees to the court -- both in their 50s -- likely have several decades in which to leave their mark.
