OK, it's a given that George W. Bush is no rocket scientist (or even a Rhodes Scholar) but you would think he might have managed to grasp a little basic math during school. Hell, even a Yale MBA is expected to know how to add and subtract.
But Bush continues to push his increased domestic spending agenda, his increasingly bloated police state bureaucracy (aka Homeland Security) and, of course, the invasion and occupation of Iraq as the deficit deepens and the economy shows no sign of recovery.
However, even someone as dense as Dubya may finally realize he can't keep spending this nation into bankruptcy (if, in fact, he has not done so already).
There are signs Dubya is rethinking some of his big spending plans. Nothing definite, mind you, but a hint here and there -- like some of the things he failed to mention in the State of the Union.
Even worse than Bush's spend 'till you drop habits is the Greek Chorus of die-hards who support this failure as a President, no matter what. Well, they say misery loves company and misery will be the ultimate legacy of George W. Bush.
