Professor, I like your #2 quote!
Of course, if I were third and the guy who was second got killed then I would be #2. So there could be a lot of #2's killed.

Righties are like those whackos who see the image of Jesus in a tortilla; every little bit of news is spun to "prove" Bush is the greatest president since...his father, I guess.
Alito makes one 6-3 decision to allow a lower court to review a capital case, and it "proves" a)his heart is pure b)Alito will be fair and evenhanded and c) He will confound his critics with his wisdom.
The unemployment figures come out, and they are finally down to where they were during Clinton, and it "proves" the economy is just hummin' along. Never mind a staggering national debt, balance of trade deficit, and more people below the poverty line than ever before. Just wipe off your rose-colored glasses.
We finally kill Osama's #2 guy in Pakistan (just how many #2s did he have?) and it "proves" we're winning the war. Never mind how many innocents we also wiped out, or that we DIDN'T get him, or that we alienated one of our most important allies in the area.
No, like true believers, they won't be dissuaded by facts or logic; they will see the face in the tortilla while the rest of us just see a burnt spot.

I've seen this in business too many times...Great managers hire great people; mediocre managers hire even more mediocre pions to feel better. So, Bush, being less than mediocre gets his support from the bottom of the barrel, and they all kiss his ass, that way he can live with himself , and look in the mirror each day. They will stand and cheer for him if he ties his own shoes, getting them on the right feel. Scott will hold a press conference to applaud Bush's efforts and achievements.
