On Bush's 60 Minutes Interview

The Blog | Sherman Yellen: The Educator in Grief | The Huffington Post: "...What struck me as most telling in this interview was Bush's claim that he was unable to sit through the execution of Saddam as seen on that notorious videotape. Perhaps this explains why he has been unable to visit our many wounded, burned, and maimed soldiers in the military hospitals. Our Educator in Grief is a sensitive, soft hearted man who does not like to look upon unpleasant sights to which we can now add capital punishment, particularly when dispatched in Iraq without the precision tooled efficiency that they practiced in Texas when he was Governor. Thus he will not look at the body bags of soldiers returning from this escalation because it would cause him too much pain. As Bush comes apart each level of that human onion that tries to pass for a leader is exposed. And sadly it can only bring more tears to America"(my italics).
