Just a short note to remind you that today is the fourth anniversary of the quote that, in my mind, best describes our president and his bald unfitness to lead a country in wartime: “Bring them on.”
The swagger that substitutes for reflection, the arrogance that precludes careful planning, the false confidence in American invincibility that almost seems inspired by God (or maybe just stupidity) — it’s all in those three little words. It will be a true crime if the planners at Southern Methodist don’t inscribe this over the entry to the George W. Bush presidential library.
