What's with the trend of not wanting an empathetic president?
I've heard so many speak of Bush with pride because
he's "A war president that doesn't waste his time seeing
things from the evil doer's perspective."
The "evildoer's perspective" seems to be any perspective not his own.
It seems this mentality is required so he does not drop the phony premises behind the war. If he starts caring much about what others think of him it's harder to be a tyrant. This is why I think Bush's religious baggage may be genuine, as well.
It's harder to feel stupid when you are in a divine light.
