In this eye-opening and rather disturbing article from the Toronto Star, Murray Whyte (oddly enough, the paper’s entertainment reporter), reviews Mark Crispin Miller’s The Bush Dyslexicon: Observations on a National Disorder. The book was originally supposed to be funny (about Bush’s slip-ups in speech), but turned into quite a bit more. What remains is a scary portrait of the man running our nation. And scarier yet is that Miller’s analysis makes some sense. Who knows what the actual psychology is behind Bush’s verbal goof-ups, but more and more these days, I really believe that the government (and he at the top) is shadier than anyone realizes.
Of course Bush’s supporters will disagree. But it’s a free country, right?
