Bushes nominates crony to U.S. Supreme Court
Andrew Sullivan | The Best Spin Yet

THE BEST SPIN YET: "It's not as bad as Caligula putting his horse in the Senate." - Richard Brookhiser, NRO. One more thought. Bush is a deeply arrogant and insecure person (the qualities go together), a man who refuses to cower in the face of criticism. This can be a good thing, as in his tenacity in the war on terror. But it is also a hubristic flaw - evident as early as "Mission Accomplished" - which has only been reinforced by his re-election. The one thing that could motivate him to appoint a crony as obviously unqualified as Miers is precisely to stick a finger in the eye of those accusing him of cronyism. Tell him we need more troops in Iraq? It's the one thing he won't do. Tell him he's a big spender? We get: "It's going to cost whatever it costs." Tell him he has botched the Iraq occupation? He'll give the architects Medals of Freedom. There's an adolescent streak of pure willfulness in the man. He cannot and will not self-correct. If pushed into a corner, he will simply repeat the error in order to prove himself immune to criticism. We had one chance to correct this - the only one he understands. And he got away with re-election after four years of spectacular, unconservative incompetence. I'm afraid I have limited sympathy for those complaining conservatives who were silent when it mattered, and are now living with the consequences.

ABOVE The back garden. Where it was a little too hot and humid, especially for October.

Out of sorts
I didn't fit in the house.
