The five point plan

Via Raw Story, I learn that Time Magazine says Josh Bolton has devised a five-point plan to rescue the Bush presidency. Here are the five points:

1) "Deploy guns and badges" -- to play to the conservative base on illegal immigration, using the cloak of Homeland Security.

2) Make Wall Street happy through tax cuts.

3) Brag more ("highlight the glimmer of success in Iraq").

4) Reclaim security by playing tough with Iran (On Iran, "Democrats will lose").

5) Court the press (offer Tony Snow of Fox News the job of White House press secretary)


Note that there's absolutely no change in substance here, and once again, the tail is wagging the dog, allowing politics to dictate foreign policy (Iran) and domestic policy (those evil immigrant terrorists).

My guess is that this won't be enough (I'm not sure anything can rescue Bush), but who knows?
