An excellent article by Nick Turse and Tom Engelhardt on how competence was punished and lock-step mendacity rewarded by the Bush administration.
Some people have chosen to give Bush the benefit of the doubt on the Miers nomination. I will admit, the fact that the person one nominated is a crony does not necessarily mean cronyism has occurred, it is possible that a particular crony may indeed be the best person for the job, and the fact that they are a crony is just coincidental. But given Bush's track record, only a blithering moron or a shameless butt-kisser would give him the benefit of the doubt.
That is all.
