Bush steals Jenna's boyfriend for his own....

Who Knows Bush's Mind Best?
No, it's not Karl Rove. It's a 26-year-old whiz with no college degree

The only words he ever says in public are, "This is the official two-minute warning for the press. Two minutes." He delivers them with effortless authority to vast crowds after placing President George W. Bush's note cards or speech text on the podium just so. His declarations sometimes cause networks to go live.

Blake Gottesman, a 26-year-old Texan who met the President when he was dating Bush's daughter Jenna in high school, has the title of personal aide to the President. It's a job that traditionally meant being "body guy" to the chief, the young aide who carries the souvenirs and dispenses the Purell. But Bush is uniquely sensitive about his personal ecology, and Gottesman has blossomed into a systems analyst, gatekeeper and diplomat who serves as the membrane between the President and the rest of the staff.

Gottesman, famous for remembering the names of volunteers, floats above all the political, military and advance-office silos and orchestrates each group's interaction with the President, incorporating preferences and efficiencies learned from other days and other cities. On the road he'll crack a joke if Bush is getting tense.

"If the aide looks nervous, the President will think there's something to be nervous about," Gottesman, who is intensely private even for a Bushie, tells TIME in a rare interview. "So you look calm even when everything is going wrong."

White House Counselor to the President Dan Bartlett calls Gottesman "a walking mood ring," the unquestioned authority on whom the President wants in his limo, what member of Congress he may accept in his office on Air Force One and whether it is wise for a top aide to bring up a particular topic at a particular time. "Blake is so humble and professional that advisers much older than he rely on his advice instead of resenting him," says Reed Dickens, 28, who has filled in for Gottesman.

And why isn't this military aged prime specimen of rethuglican young manhood not doing his fair share in Iraq? And does Jimmy/Jeff/Bulldog Gannon have anything to worry about?
