Here we are in the second half of Dear Leader's eight year term. The Congress is the Company's. The Judiciary is an arm of the American Enterprise Institute for all practical purposes.
The Republican hold on the main$tream media, from The New York Pravda to the latest on PBS is absolute.
But the nearer their destination, the more it's slip sliding away.
It may have been when Colin Powell realized there's a limit to what the non-reality based are prepared to plan for and no limit to the loyal troops they're prepared to sacrifice. Including the Secretary of State.
It may have started when Dear Leader tried to talk some Company concern into losing money in the vacuum of his Social Security non-plan.
It may have been when Trent Lott's house got blown over three Gulf States last summer, and he couldn't get any hired help in to rebuild it.
It may have been when he Meirs nomination died a death of a thousand cuts from the very Senators Dear Leader had appointed to administer his political capital.
But last week, they couldn't pass their own budget.
And this week, according one of the biggest Republican propaganda organs in the country, The Washington Times, Dear Leader is getting a little paranoid:
President Bush feels betrayed by several of his most senior aides and advisors and has severely restricted access to the Oval Office, administration sources say. The president's reclusiveness in the face of relentless public scrutiny of the U.S.-led war in Iraq and White House leaks regarding CIA operative Valerie Plame has become so extreme that Mr. Bush has also reduced contact with his father, former President George H.W. Bush, administration sources said on the condition of anonymity...
[Thanks to Atrios for the tip.]
From the subscribers only part of the article:
The sources said Mr. Bush maintains daily contact with only four people: first lady Laura Bush, his mother, Barbara Bush, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Undersecretary of State Karen Hughes. The sources also say that Mr. Bush has stopped talking with his father, except on family occasions.
Dear Leader and Poppy not speaking?
Dear Leader being soothed by She of the Beautiful Mind?
Little Boot had best not get into any small airplanes serviced only by his Praetorians.

I find it hard to believe, too.
I also find it hard to believe almost any thing the main$tream has passed off as fact for many years now.
This particular story strikes me as another disinformation meme from somebody simply because it fits so many stereotypes.
A curious thing strikes me: most of these kinds of stories we assume are aimed at people to engender support for progressive alternatives.
But what if their purpose is alotogether different. This particular meme strikes me as more than a little misogynistic, too. What if this is designed to hit Dear Leader's paleocon base- and sway it further to the right?
