"He has neither the inclination nor the ability to make sophisticated judgments... "
Here Wills talks about constitutional matters, but hold up: in what area has Bush the inclination or ability to make a sophisticated judgment. Indeed, one may ask all the Georges, when was such ability construed to be a good thing at any place in this administration? Sophisticated, insightful, reasoned, well thought out: none of this is Bush! He'd be bereft of all his charm!
I suggest that the utter lack of sophistication is Bush's calling card, a distrust of sophistication rich among his devotees. Indeed, "born again" bespeaks an innocence humbly extracted from a life of sophistication, a leader who's followers will love him with the same lack of sophistication.
Ah, but would anyone say Rove is without sophistication? So, what is such an attribute doing anywhere near Bush, and what could that mean? surely nothing good. Lay? DeLay?
No, we have an unsophisticated president, fullfilling the roles of the TV heroes of American Idol and sitcoms and where no one works unless there is a laugh track to keep it going and Survival where success falls on the studiously unprepared, master of a stupid dog trick in life, who wins his position with good looks and good likes and good luck: hard work is really such a bore.
Even the 3 stooges have more sophistication in their perfection of the unsophisticated.
