I read about half of the article and got bored.
First the article seems to want to perpetuate the myth that Bush is not too smart. That's one thing I love about Bush; the dumbest guy gets elected Govenor of Texas and then elected President. He has to be the luckiest dumb guy on the planet. So there is hope for me to accomplish something that will make my mother happy.
Second, when he was elected half the country did not accept him has the true President. And Washington insiders never accepted him, including some members of his party. So, what does he do? He turns to people he trusts. That is a big surprise.
Third, the President can't do much without congressional support. So even if his ideas are born in an enviroment with "yes men", congress has to buy into it. In reality he doesn't even have much control over foreign policy because he doesn't control the money.
In the end you have to conclude the article is perhaps entertaining, but certainly trivial.
