Why Bush is unfit to rule the planet

John Berger, in The Guardian, attacks the Bush administration giving a particular definition of political madness: “an ignorance about most of what exists, and an abdication of the very minimum of what can be expected of government".

The Bush government is not able to negotiate between its fear and its confidence, it says. Hence, its ineptness in facing the complexity of the reality. “Their operation in Afghanistan failed, their war in Iraq has been won (as the saying goes) by Iran, Katrina was allowed to produce the worst natural disaster in US history, and terrorist activities are increasing”. How can this administration believe they can rule the planet?
