A president so out of touch

I think most Americans now realize that George W. Bush lives in a very different reality that we do. Listening to any of his speeches will make that very clear.

Still, I was taken aback a few days ago when that fortunate son, who years ago ran some oil companies (ran them into the ground, that is), demonstrated that he doesn't have a clue about how much money we are spending at the pump.

We need a president who understands how real people live and the problems we face.

And we need a president who cares about the welfare of the people over the welfare of big business.

Meantime, with all the home foreclosures taking place, I'm wishing that we could foreclose on the White House. We just can't afford for Bush to occupy it any longer.
