In a somewhat humbling article of human nature, Shankar Vedantam explains how people tend to villify wrongs done to them while minimizing wrongs done by them. What does this have to do with Bush?
It explains why he can be so wrong but believe he's so right.
Spoken about the Libby pardon:

He sees no inconsistency, just as we cannot see our own inconsistencies even though they are strikingly clear to everyone else," Tavris said. "He is protecting one of his own, but his reasoning is consistent with the way the mind works to preserve consistency."

Very true. I am sorry if I ever called him evil and despicable (which, for the record, I never have). But as I've
said before, it doesn't matter what he believes. He's a lead weight that is sinking our country and the rest of the world along with us.
