Bush: Clueless idiot, or Svengali of some sort?

Those of us progressives who have watched him from years, especially inside Texas, have probably always debated this issue back and forth. Perhaps we’ve not been as charitable as the 2000 press, but we might still have argued for Bush being Cheney’s puppet to some degree.

Well, an April 15 story by the Albuquerque Journal blows “clueless” out of the water. The paper writes that 30-year-plus U.S. Sen. Pete Domenici, also a committee chair, personally and directly called Bush to get U.S. District Attorney David Iglesias fired.

Svengali is the only answer.
