Anybody notice how easily Bush went from Leaker-in-Chief to Decider?

Remember how widely Bush was being referred to as "Leaker-in-Chief," a title which conjured up a much more damaging image than "Decider."

Then, one day, Bush refers to himself as the "decider," and the MSM (no surprise) and a big chunk of the rest of us go right along with it, and immediately start referring to him as the more lightweight "the Decider," leaving Leaker-in-Chief in the dust.

Personally, I prefer Leaker-in-Chief, because it keeps one aspect of the criminal damage he's done to the country front-and-center. (Of course, there are many, many more names he can be called, but I'm referring here to what might be used in polite company.)

6. I like "chimpy mcLeakypants"

it evokes (1) chimp, (2) the Plame scandal, and (3) that note he wrote at the UN asking Condi if he could go to the bathroom.
