He's the Bush mob consigliere.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consigliere
Consigliere entered the popular lexicon through the “Godfather” films.
There the consigliere is an adviser or counsellor to a mafia boss. As
well, it is the consigliere's role to fill in for the Don as the Don's
representative during im****tant meetings, either within the Don's
crime family or with other crime families. The consigliere is a close,
trusted friend and confidant. It is reputed that in Cosa Nostra (the
'real' mafia) the consigliere is the third-most powerful figure in a
Mafia family, following the underboss and the boss.
The role of consigliere is commonly associated with Robert Duvall's
****trayal of Tom Hagen in The Godfather.
