George W. Bush: 'Commander Guy'

By Jake on May 03,2007

What's up with George W. Bush and his nicknames for himself. Last year it was "the decider" and now he is calling himself "the commander guy." Must be some kind of Freudian thing. He makes idiotic decisions, so he calls himself "the decider." He doesn't command any respect, so he calls himself "the commander guy." How about this one: "the impeached one."-Jake

From Sheryl Gay Stolberg at The New York Times:

The man who last year proclaimed “I’m the decider,’’ in response to a question about whether he would fire Donald Rumsfeld as defense secretary, came up with this latest moniker in explaining why he vetoed an Iraq war spending bill that dictated a timeline for troops to withdraw from Iraq.
“The question is, ‘Who ought to make that decision, the Congress or the commanders?,’’ Mr. Bush said. “As you know, my position is clear – I’m the commander guy.”
