I'm truly elated to know that things are going so well in the United State and abroad that Bush can throw his full weight into pushing a program that nobody in their right minds would want (Social Security "privatization" blitz)!
If nothing else, fighting this losing battle certainly takes his mind off creating new wars to fight. Besides, it relaxes his temptation to take a vacation for 4 years. At least we can say he's doing something to earn his keep ;-), whether it's the right thing or not.
