Have you become a 'bubbled - in' leader?

Have you become a 'bubbled – in' leader?

 

A former aide of President Bush describes his disappointment thus:

 

"I really like him, which is probably why I'm so disappointed in things," he said. He added, "I think he's become more, in my view, secluded and bubbled in."

 

Bubbled-in?

 

An apt word to describe a leader, who is out of touch with the ground realities, insulated from dissenting voices, in love with his own grand vision, walking around wearing rose tinted glasses, secluded from the misery of his misadventures.

 

A classic case of a leader who has lost it.

 

This begs the question, are you bubbled-in?

 

Can you still see beyond your nose?
