Now, see, if you know that Bush tried to make people think there was a connection between 9/11 and Iraq, and you also know that his speechwriters made very sure that he didn't technically (like in a lawyer sense) say that there was a connection -- how can you still like the guy?

Sometimes I get the feeling that Bush-supporters just admire him as a salesman, or something. Like, if you can lie and get away with it, that's sort of admirable? Is that the idea?
