Bush History - Bush Fires Ally for Doing a Good Job, & Pres Ford Talks of Bush's Bad Job - 12/26

Bush's appointment on this date (2003) of a long time ally is short-lived; he is fired, apparently for doing too good a job of ferreting out incompetence at Homeland Security. Protect the nation yes, but not if it means embarrassing Mr Bush! Also on this date (2006) President Ford's death frees a reporter to talk of Ford's strong disagreement with Bush's Iraq policies. And a related Bushism.

More details, from the 2009 Bush Blunder Calendar ...

No surprise is correct sakabatou: it's the 'MO' of the Bush administration. Competence is not highly regarded in the ranks, when it is so clearly lacking at the top. President Ford no doubt appreciated that fact.
