Having read the WSJ front page story on where our fearless leader is planning to lead in the Middle East thing, I find myself just wondering again.

How is it that every time President Bush decides to decide, it's always a "Harry Hard-nose" thing with him.  "This is what I believe and this is what I'm gonna do." 

And every time W decides to do something, it's always the opposite of what Bill Clinton did, as if that makes it not only OK but it proves something.

That is what I wonder about.  What is he trying to prove.  You don't suppose it's a sibling rivalry thing with Clinton do you?  It could have begun in 1992 when "Bubba Bill" beat Poppy.  And then for eight years the papers were full of Clinton's sex life and Poppy and W weren't "getting any."

And now - where's Bubba Bill - why right there next to Poppy - probably teaching him all he knows about everything, right? And W is just too busy running the U.S. and starting World War III and IV to mind... but it's always in the back of his mind...such as it is these days.

So after giving Angela Merkel a back rub at the G8, W decided to get Israel to break up Syria and Iran never mind what it's doing to Lebanon.  After all everybody loves a decider.

Just wondering.
