Craig Crawford- "Bush would circle the globe before admitting he was lost"
Craig Crawford: Opinion-Proof Policy
By Craig Crawford | 7:31 PM; Jun. 16, 2006 |

If we learned anything about George W. Bush when he was in the Rose Garden last week, it was just how much he sees himself as utterly impervious to the obvious will of a majority of the American people.

A buoyant and at times defiant president met with reporters just a few hours after proving that Air Force One can indeed fly to Baghdad and back without incident. Energized by this technological feat, along with the killing the week before of al Qaeda’s leader in Iraq, Bush proceeded to explain why he simply does not care about the persistent parade of opinion polls showing that most Americans are as unhappy as ever with his policies in Iraq. “Don’t bet on American politics forcing my hand, because it’s not going to happen,” Bush said.

There you have it, naysayers. The president has no intention of listening to you.

snip-

One wonders what would happen if the president made a wrong turn on a road trip. Is there a chance he’d double back to the right path? I think not. Instead, he gives the impression of someone who would circle the globe before admitting he was lost. He is the stereotypical belligerent male that women often complain about, preferring to stay lost rather than stop and ask someone for directions.
