Reply #3: and to add insult to injury ...

Bush loves eating desserts. There was a bizarre interview with him back in December 2000, when he was gloating over being able to order up the most exotic pastries from the White House chef.

I can just picture him, stuffing himself with pastries, and smirking. Who cares if other people can't enjoy themselves because of his mismanagement? "Let them eat cake ... heh, heh."



"Bush can't get beyond his genuine fascination with the White House mess hall:
"The dessert menu is unbelievable ... esterday at the Blair House we had
this, I'm not even sure, coffee ice cream surrounded by this unbelievable
meringue, beautiful meringue." And Bruni informs us that well into his first
year in office Bush is "still raving about ... little red button in the private
dining room off the Oval Office that he could use to summon the butler.""
