Bush could start earning trust by learning two little letters

The letters "I" and "C." Yet again, he puts a thumb in the eye of Democrats while seeming conciliatory. I guess He just can't help himself. WaPo:

"[BUSH] There's a lot of attitude here that says, 'Well, you lost the Congress. Therefore, you're not going to get anything done.' Quite the contrary," he said. "I have an interest to get things done. And the Democrat leaders have an interest to get something done to show that they're worthy of their leadership roles."

That's Democratic leaders, George, you putz.

And what's even more rich?

The followup statement that Dems need to "show that they're worthy of their leadership roles."

Bush's statement, besides being arrogant and patronizing, is anti-democratic (small "d"). After all, in a democracy, isn't being elected enough to be "worthy"? Not, I suppose, if you're one of the "God is in the White House" loons, a collectivity in which Dear Leader Himself figures prominently.
