Charlatan- Good call...
Willravel - Thanks, I was pleased with it myself... ;-) Also note that BOTH of your option lend themselves toward outside influence and control. If he's corrupt, he's doing it because he gets something out of it. If he's just an idiot, he may simply not KNOW what's going on half the time.
Fresnelly - A plant as in either? Both? I'm not really sure. Willravel's points are well made. I think he could be either or possibly both. And sure, he's a politician... but even the really corrupt ones usually try to do things in the guise of aiding their constituency. Bush does things for less substantial (to the public at large, at least) reasons as far as I can tell. As I said, I'm not one to go for this kind of thinking generally... but for a change, it may be an issue.
