"I'm the decider, and I decide what's best.  And what's best is for Don Rumsfeld to remain as the secretary of defense."

- George Bush, speaking today on Rummy's job security.

First off, what's striking about this comment is President Bush's no-nonsense attitude and taking of the reigns.

OK, President Bush, let's talk about you being the Decider.

You decided to take us into a war based on securing this nation against terrorism, against a country who's paid 'suicide' bombers from the PA, and ignored 17 U.N. resolutions.  You decided to fix the policy around the facts, which is a commendable decision!

You decided that you care about fiscal responsibility, and have tried to cut taxes as far as the eye can see , but are fought by Senate Democrats who want Americans in bondage to the Federal government.

You decided deploy aid after days of floundering by Ray Nagins and the governor of Louisiana after Hurricane Katrina.  And you decided to go to a birthday party for John McCain after you set the cleanup in motion regarding Nagins' hideous apathy and race-card flopping while people were literally drowning and dying in New Orleans due to abject, willful neglect.

You decided to uphold the law by conducting foreign wiretapping into domestic phones without receiving a warrant first through the FISA Court, just as the FISA laws CLEARLY state you can do.

I could go on and on, but well, I'm sure you get the picture Mr. President.

Sounds like a pretty fabulous record in decision-making, if you ask me.  Just remember Bushie, you can be decisive, and usually are decisively right.
