"Bush's choice of Tony Snow as the new Whitehouse spokesman is telling. This right wing commentator for Fox news will have plenty of credibility with Fox News regular viewers, but he will be seen as a right wing propagandist and Bush shill by the rest of the US and the world.
Bush goes on TV and promises to investigate the charges of energy company gouging. What a joke. Most of us, most of the US, most of the world will view this as the Fox offering to investigate deaths in the henhouse. It's good enough for his "base" though.
It's becoming clearer that Bush is not going to get back any of his lost poll percentage points by doing business as usual and he's unable to do anything not usual. He continues his history of never firing anyone. He waits for resignations, probably lubricating them with juicy deals. Look at what happened with Michael Brown, the closest he's come to a firing. The guy bit back. I imagine there are dozens of Bush appointed incompetents who could, if they were fired, do massive further damage to Bush, just telling the truth about Bush's incompetence and probably his lies. No Bush can't fire people and that makes things tough for him to make any real changes."
