The Decision-maker speaks

First, he was the "decider," and the world snickered.  Now that he's facing the most criticism in his entire tenure as president, and someone took him aside and explained that using "decider" made him sound even dumber than usual, so now he is the "decision-maker" on Iraq.  That's his response in answer to his critics' refusal to rubber stamp his troop surge. 

I think Bush is riding a little high on his horse at this point.  Yes, he is the president, but he has to be held accountable for his deciderism.  He needs to know that being drunk with power will not be tolerated, and that he's heading for a fall. 

Hell, it would be quite easy for me to go on public access and tell those few watching that I'm the decision-maker in Finland, but that doesn't make it true. 

As I said yesterday, though, the more often he says things like this, the more people realize just how out of touch with reality the man really is.  Still waiting on the announcement that we've conquered the moon and stamped out terrorism there for good.
