I think almost certainly the former. The piece opens with O'Neill criticizing the way that Bush runs Cabinet Meetings. It sounds an awful like he just did not fit into the operational culture of The White House, as there is a lot of evidence that Bush's "CEO" style has managed conflicting ideas from his staff fairly well in my mind. At any rate, who cares about this stuff? About the most damning claim O'Neill has is that Bush actually had far more pre-planning for the war in Iraq than we have previously none. So, we are going to pillory Bush for planning ahead? JDG _______________________________________________________ John D.
