On the Moron-in-Chief
June 4th, 2008 | by Paul Merda |Maureen Dowd has a funny piece about Scotty McClellan’s book and the Moron-in-Chief. Ok, it would be funny if a work of fiction, but alas, “W” is really President.
It turns out that the President is a one-man refutation of Malcolm Gladwell’s bestseller Blink, about the value of trusting your gut. Every gut instinct he had was wildly off the mark and hideously damaging to all concerned.
It seems that if you trust your gut without ever feeding your gut any facts or news or contrary opinions, if you keep your gut on a steady diet of grandiosity, ignorance, sycophants and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, those snap decisions can be ruinous.
