Solipsist nimbus

Solipsist nimbus: (1) Reference our posting in The American Political Handbook - Throw Your Shoes in the Air? (1.1) See the paragraph: "Also, what kind of solipsist nimbus must the outgoing administration be living under? Surely, they could have foreseen some sort of attack on their representative - in the guise of Mr. Bush himself. How could they have not foreseen this even the most minor of violent outrages perpetrated on their person? It is laughable to surely think otherwise. Mr. Bush is indeed fortunate to have suffered only this most minor of attacks. We are indeed relieved that the outrage has only come to this." (2) The apparent lack of perception of the very real reality of outrage and disenfranchisement experienced by those living under the current/outgoing administration and by them. (3) The cloud of unreality that the current/outgoing administration is living under in regards to the real perception of them and their rule.
