Bush open to change...? The NYT is smoking that funny stuff again...

the pungent smell of burning cannabis fills the air...
If the balance of political power in Washington changes on Tuesday, will President Bush change with it?

[...]

Yet with Mr. Bush facing the likelihood of a remade political landscape in Washington, even if his party holds on to both houses of Congress, the White House is sending signals that Mr. Bush is open to a shift in approach. After six years of virtually ignoring Democrats as he pressed his own party to do his bidding on Capitol Hill, Mr. Bush and his aides are charting a course that they say will take the president back to his roots as Texas governor, when he worked in a more bipartisan way with Democrats.

They are piecing together a domestic agenda that includes reviving the president’s failed bid to overhaul entitlement programs like Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, White House officials and allies of the administration said. The president has assigned Treasury Secretary Henry M. Paulson Jr. to spearhead the effort, and the White House says it is quietly reaching out to Democrats on Capitol Hill.

trying once again to overhaul kill entitlement benefit programs is CHANGING...? oh, good lord, gimme a break... if bush is "quietly reaching out to democrats," i hope those democrats are recoiling like he was a poisonous snake... i'm sorry, but there's no doubt left to give george benefit of... when you've been abused and violated repeatedly over nearly six years, it's positively insane to give the perpetrator yet another chance without his having even been brought to justice, paid any consequences, or gone through treatment...
