George Bush: world-class doofus

only $5M is restored after a $28M budget cut... them's mixed signals on top of mixed signals...

Bush Admits to 'Mixed Signals' Regarding Laboratory on Renewable Energy

and, as long as he's in "admitting" mode, why doesn't he admit to all the other mixed signals he sends on a daily basis...?

President Bush acknowledged on Tuesday that his administration had sent "mixed signals" to the Department of Energy's primary renewable energy laboratory here, where government budget cuts forced the layoff of 32 employees who were then hastily reinstated just before Mr. Bush's visit.

bush oughta be given a citation for causing whiplash...

Managers at the laboratory began calling the employees back on Monday, a holiday, and phone calls were continuing on Tuesday. None of the employees were back at work in time for the president's visit, said a laboratory spokesman, George Douglas.

"Human Resources had to figure out how to do this," Mr. Douglas said in an interview as Mr. Bush shook the hands of employees. "There was some paperwork. We've never done this before — let people go and then hire them back in two weeks."

such a high regard bush has for ordinary folks... juan and juanita drag themselves back home and announce around the dinner table, "bad news, i've been laid off..." losing a job is right up there with some of the most stressful events that can happen to you... now, their chains get jerked once again... nothing like helping create that precious atmosphere of trust in the workplace...
