What Me, Worry?

Did anyone see David Gregory's interview with President Bush on the Today show this morning?

It went something like this:

Gregory: How do you respond to the fact that your approval ratings are now below Nixon's during the Watergate scandal?

Bush: [chuckles to himself]

Gregory: Are you laughing?

Bush: No, I'm not laughing.

Gregory: So, how do you explain your approval ratings?

Bush: We're at war!

I'm so sick of the tautology of this administration. Does he think he is the first and only President to go to war? Does he think that the American public has no opinion about this war? Does he completely dismiss our opinions as if we are a bunch of children?

His insouciance has become intolerable.
