The WaPo's naivete again rears its ugly head

once again, the wapo demos an astounding naivete...
[Bush] should stop stonewalling his critics or playing for partisan advantage and work with Congress to create legal means to fight terrorism compatible with American values and democracy. It would be nice to see him begin before the next disturbing revelation; we have a feeling there are more to come.

1. advising bush to stop stonewalling is a complete waste of words

2. playing for partisan advantage is not "A" bushco strategy, it is "THE" bushco strategy

3. working "with" ANYBODY is antithetical to the core of bush's being

4. creating legal means to fight terrorism ignores the fact that bush considers himself to BE the law and falsely assumes that he gives a fig about fighting terrorism

5. american values and democracy juxtaposed with the bush administration creates an oxymoron of epic proportions

6. continuing to live in a dream world where it would be "nice" to see george do something differently is flirting with a dangerous level of denial

7. feeling that more disturbing revelations are to come is perhaps the understatement of the decade, if not the century
