Chapter 13: Second Time Around<\/strong><\/p>\nGeorge W. Bush\u2019s campaign staff runs by me the speech he plans to give when he formally kicks off his run for president on July 23, 1999, at a Methodist church in Indianapolis. He embraces our task force\u2019s recommendations, saying, \u201cGovernment can spend money, but it can\u2019t put hope in our hearts or a sense of purpose in our lives. This is done by churches and synagogues and mosques and charities that warm the cold of life.\u201d<\/p>\n
In Indianapolis, church choirs rev up the multiethnic crowd. Bush hugs several church leaders and proposes that \u201cresources should be devolved, not just to states, but to charities and neighborhood healers.\u201d He stipulates that \u201cwe will never ask an organization to compromise its core values and spiritual mission to get the help it needs.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bush emphasizes the importance of religious groups being religious. They should not have to become government look-alikes to gain access to resources. He makes a promise: \u201cWe will provide for charity tax credits. . . . Individuals will choose who conducts this war on poverty\u2014and their support won\u2019t be filtered through layers of government officials.\u201d<\/p>\n
My volunteer membership on Team Bush means recusing myself from editing any World stories on the GOP presidential contest, but I\u2019m free to talk to the reporters from the East and West Coasts who come to Austin puzzled about Bush. I\u2019m a faculty fellow at a UT dorm, which gives me free dining hall privileges. Much to the dismay of the journalists who call, we eat in the dining hall. Over pizza or burgers, I tell them my role is highly informal and my contact with Bush rare. At least one tells me later he assumes I\u2019m being coy: anyone who downplays his access must have huge access.<\/p>\n
The more I truthfully downplay my role, the more my supposed status rises, as press accounts move from the accurate \u201cinformal Bush advisor\u201d to \u201cthe revered intellectual guru of Governor Bush.\u201d The Washington Post <\/em>elevates me from \u201cBush advisor\u201d to \u201cBush counselor\u201d to \u201ca close policy adviser to George W. Bush.\u201d One German publication dubs me his \u201cear-whisperer.\u201d The Moscow Times<\/em> makes me Bush\u2019s \u201cclosest domestic adviser\u201d and \u201csoulmate.\u201d<\/p>\nIn addition to interviews, I also play tour guide for print and broadcast reporters eager to see compassionate conservatism in action. I point them to homeless shelters and programs for addicts and ex-cons. Reporters visit my church, interview our pastor, and set up elaborate recording sessions in my living room. A New York Times<\/em> reporter writes, \u201cWhen I ask one of Bush\u2019s top aides to explain what a compassionate conservative administration might look like, he says simply, \u2018Talk to Marvin.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\nAs the campaign heats up, it becomes increasingly clear to both me and Bush staffers that I\u2019m not ideally suited to the role of designated talker. I like to think it\u2019s my unwillingness to be put in a box, but maybe I\u2019m just a loose cannon. In 1999, after praising the work of nineteenth-century women who
headed charitable enterprises, I say their twentieth-century entry into the corporate workforce hurts American society because it takes them out of volunteer work. Ouch. A book cleverly titled Bushwomen<\/em> says, \u201cOlasky is not a fan of highachieving women.\u201d<\/p>\nI justify my lack of discipline by saying I don\u2019t work for the campaign but make another unforced error in February 2000 by writing a column that plays with Tom Wolfe\u2019s fanciful novel A Man in Full<\/em>. Wolfe has his protagonist, in Atlanta, face a crisis and come to belief not in Christ (as many Georgians do) but in Zeus. I then call the 2000 GOP presidential sweepstakes a contest between Bush\u2019s emphasis on charity and love and John McCain\u2019s
stress on the classical virtues of honor and duty: Christianity versus \u201cthe religion of Zeus.\u201d<\/p>\nMy column in the Austin American Statesman<\/em> goes on to criticize three New York\u2013based, McCain-fan journalists who are not doing hard reporting about the candidate\u2019s acceptance of cash from lobbyists. I say McCain is \u201cas erratic as the Zeus of mythology, with a history of throwing thunderbolts in all directions\u201d and \u201cleading reporters are proselytes in the religion of Zeus instead of tough reporters.\u201d<\/p>\nOuch again. The statement is not unreasonable but it is unseasonable in the midst of a hard campaign. Worse, to some McCain supporters Zeus almost rhymes with Jews, which the three columnists I criticize are. Obviously, they say, I\u2019m making an antisemitic dog whistle. I call one of my critics and say, truthfully, that while knowing one of the columnists is Jewish, I live in Texas and didn\u2019t know that about the other two. He\u2019s a New Yorker and replies, \u201cHow could you not know?\u201d<\/p>\n
Crazy, but political crudity did not begin in 2016, and political wisdom means knowing that anything you say or write can be used against you. As some journalists defecate concrete, I step in it. In June a senior Bush aide and I travel to London to discuss with members of the Conservative Party whether
compassionate conservatism will work in a British context. The aide, with incredible discipline, turns almost any question back to a prepared talking point. When a reporter asks me an interesting question, though, I often stroke my beard, clear my throat, and give a speculative answer.<\/p>\n
British reporters say I\u2019m one of those disreputable American televangelists. The Observer <\/em>opines, \u201cOn the endless plains of Indiana [Bush] repeated the phrase \u2018compassionate conservatism\u2019 15 times. Bush had borrowed it from a man [who\u2019s] got a beard. He\u2019s called Marvin. What more need be said?\u201d Something more, it turns out. As \u201cspiritual overseer of George Bush\u2019s Texas\u201d\u2014that will go great on business cards\u2014I am a \u201cborn-again Christian who watched Bush from afar, on television, with a glow of satisfaction and a job in the White House awaiting him.\u201d<\/p>\nWhen a 60 Minutes story slams me on the eve of the Republican convention, Team Bush sees me as more trouble than I\u2019m worth to the campaign. I can\u2019t dispute that judgment. The whole experience makes me grateful to be out of Washington, but a little wistful as well: it\u2019s fun to see delegates at
the 2000 Republican convention in Philadelphia wearing \u201cI\u2019m a compassionate conservative\u201d buttons.<\/p>\n
I still need to fulfill speaking commitments. The most memorable is an October 2000 lecture at Washington University in St. Louis. Ten young women walk in wearing lime green T-shirts that proclaim in black letters, \u201cI\u2019m a compassionate conservative because . . .\u201d Hurrah, I finally have groupies. Not
quite: my speech begins, and they stand up, turning their backs to show the continuation of their message: \u201c. . . because I\u2019m racist, sexist\u201d and so forth. They do sit down after several minutes and politely listen to the rest of my yakking. Several realize they\u2019ve been misinformed, and they give me an extra T-shirt afterward.<\/p>\n
On election night, my family and I head to a plaza near the Texas capitol. Television crews have set up a tall grandstand where they conduct interviews. The illuminated red granite capitol building provides the backdrop. Big screens show the network television feeds. At the top of the grandstand at 9 p.m. a BBC interviewer, assuming Al Gore has won, asks me with a sneer, \u201cLooking at the returns, would you agree that compassionate conservatism hasn\u2019t much of a future?\u201d A roar from the Bush crowd drowns out my answer. Florida, earlier declared a Gore conquest, is once again in play\u2014and maybe compassionate conservatism is still alive.<\/p>\n
Five weeks after the 2000 election, the US Supreme Court confirms the election of George W. Bush. On December 13, Bush gives his first speech as president-elect: \u201cTogether we will address some of society\u2019s deepest problems one person at a time, by encouraging and empowering the good hearts
and good works of the American people. This is the essence of compassionate conservatism.\u201d<\/p>\n
Eight days later, Bush meets at Austin\u2019s First Baptist Church with thirty \u201cnational faith-based leaders\u201d and me, a journalist-historian. Sitting on plastic chairs arranged in a circle, we each have thirty seconds to express directly to the president-elect how we hope the administration will empower good hearts\u2014and maybe hire us. My turn: I say I\u2019ll continue to edit a politically independent magazine and \u201cwe\u2019ll zing you at times.\u201d Bush seems momentarily surprised but then laughs and says, \u201cJoin the club.\u201d<\/p>\n
He closes the short meeting with a wry comment: \u201cI hope that a year from now no one is going to be able to say that this was all just smoke and mirrors.\u201d But that\u2019s what one of the leading evangelicals of that era, Prison Fellowship head Chuck Colson, thinks is likely.<\/p>\n
With Bush not yet in the White House, Colson writes me a long letter that describes how leaders in Philadelphia are kicking Prison Fellowship off the committee for a Philadelphia project designed to bring together groups devoted to fighting crime, drugs, and other negative aspects of gang life. The reason: other members are uncomfortable with Colson\u2019s talk about \u201cevangelizing the streets of Philadelphia, bringing people to Christ.\u201d<\/p>\n
In his letter, Colson describes his conversation with an \u201ceminent social scientist\u201d regarding a young man who has become a Christian and is now \u201con the streets preaching and reading the Bible to members of gangs.\u201d Colson sees this \u201ctransformed life\u201d as an example of success, but the academic disagrees. The results need to be peer-reviewed, he says.<\/p>\n
Colson is prescient. I expect President-Elect Bush to select former Indianapolis mayor Steve Goldsmith, a decentralizer, to head up the White House Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives. Instead, Bush names John DiIulio, the same eminent sociologist who upset Colson. DiIulio is a Catholic and Democrat, so he checks some boxes politically, but back in Austin I share Colson\u2019s concern. My outsider status guarantees that I have no input.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
