BUSH: I say I listen to all voices, but mine's the final decision and Don Rumsfeld is doing a fine job. He's not only transforming the military, he's fighting a war on terror. He's helping us fight a war on terror. I have strong confidence in Don Rumsfeld. I hear the voices and I read the front page and I know the speculation, but I'm the decider and I decide what is best and what's best is for Don Rumsfeld to remain as the secretary of defense. I want to thank you all very much.
At which point he stomped off in a huff. Seriously.
I resolve to use the phrase, "I'm the decider!" as often as Salto uses "mustache ride."
This is comedy. He should be relentlessly ridiculed for shit like this. He should be mocked until he becomes a national joke. He should be a punchline. The mere mention of his name should bring peals of laughter. He should be marginalized and minimized until he is treated like the unpopular lame duck that he is. Maybe then people would stop kowtowing to him, and maybe we could stop talking about FUCKING NUKING IRAN like it's the idea of a sane individual.
