White House Budget Director Resigns - The Huffington Post

Bush chose former Iowa Rep. Jim Nussle, one-time chairman of the House Budget Committee, as Portman's successor.

That's right, Jim Nussle, the guy who pulled a paper bag over his head on the floor of Congress. Jim Nussle, the guy who lost the race for Iowa governor 54-44. Didn't they already try this strategery with Ashcroft?

Isn't a President supposed to surround himself with competent persons who can make the President look better? This type of disconnect is par for the course with Bush.
