Top Hack
The New Republic this week lists the top 15 hacks in the Bush White house.
They define hacks as “government officials with waifish resumés padded like the Michelin man, whose political connections have won them important national responsibilities”.
The New Republic thoroughly examined White House officials from top to bottom:
“From under every bureaucratic rock, out scurried a Bush buddy. But we endeavored to be fair. There was spirited debate over the nuances between merely mediocre officials blindly loyal to the president and those with a demonstrated history of incompetence.”
Coming in at the top of the list of hacks is Harriet Miers.
The article continues “On Monday, Bush nominated Miers, the personal lawyer who fixed the paperwork on his fishing cabin, to the Supreme Court of the United States. "I picked the best person I could find," Bush said…”
In a way, I’m inclined to believe him.
