President Bush calls himself “the decider.” Now he has a new
wartime title, bestowed upon himself by himself.

Bush met with
congressional leaders Wednesday on the war-spending bill. Then he gave a speech criticizing Democrats
for their get-out-of-Iraq deadline. He
added:

“The question is, ‘who ought to make that decision, the Congress or the
commanders?’ As you know, my position is
clear – I’m the commander guy.”

So be it.
