I’m sorry to say but I don’t think Dan has the depth to be a John Dean. He also has a new baby and twins too. I’m a identical twin. We are extremely close. She is a Fox News regular and we never discuss politics. I do hope that there is a Republican who will come forward to expose this Administration. We need a true patriot to expose the mess that Karl Rove has made in the justice Dept.

I have a feeling that people like Dan are beginning to find themselves waking up at night thinking, “What in the hell am I doing? What have I become a part of?” Most regular people have the capacity to have a “look in the mirror moment.” it’s called cognitive dissonance, that moment of chaos when you realize something you’ve thought for much of your life isn’t the way you thought it was at all. What we’re waiting for, in this climate where things are getting tremulous for the Bush Administration, is for someone who knows all about what has gone on to have such a moment, and become the modern John Dean. It might not happen. But if it does, we’re going to have “national cognitive disonance,” maybe “international cognitive disonance.” My fingers are crossed…

Today the WH announced that Dan Bartlett was leaving. He has been at Bush’s side for 14 years. He was 22 years old when he went to work for Bush. I read a while back that he and Karen Hughes went to the National Guard office where Bush’s records were in regard to his service and just wanted to clean up some records in his file before Bush ran for Gov. I didn’t know why more of that story wasn’t picked up by the rest of the media when it was discovered that at least a year of his National Guard records were missing. Dan was always the one to defend Bush when something unpleasant about the Administration came out. He usually told the interviewers asking embarrassing stuff that it wasn’t true. He was believable to the mass because he was cleancut and he had that so-called all American look. The last few times I saw him he had a distressed look on his face. I guess he can’t take it anymore because things are really falling apart at the seams in the WH. ( That of course is only my opinion.)
