Is The President Of U.S.A. Mentally Ill?

Posted on Sunday, January 14 at 16:55 by BC Mary
That thought left me wondering if maybe I was the one that was insane. I mean the implications of that, if true, were terrifying. After all, it's one thing to have guy in the Oval Office who's a crook -- we've been there, done that, and survived. But it's quite another matter to have a certifiable lunatic in that position at a time of war. (Just ask the Germans.) To find out if there could possibly be a shred of proof for my suspicions I turned off the TV and went online and spent the day searching through the latest psychology papers and texts. Terms like "crazy"and "insane" are not only loaded, but imprecise. The first thing I needed to do was to narrow it down to a particular, clinically defined, pathology. It turned out that was not an easy matter, because Bush seems to have claims on more than one piece of crazyland real estate. The best I could do was narrow it down to a few leading candidates. I'll leave you to decide if you think the mental disorders described below define the George W. Bush you've come to know over the past six years. (Words inREDare the characteristics I think apply.) http://www.smirkingchimp.com/thread/4706

    Madness also runs parallel to aberrancy. Cannibalism was not considered abnormal by cannibals. Marrying the young is not deviance in some societies and some cultures eating dogs and cats is acceptable. Bush is surrounded by those who think alike, as was Napoleon and Hitler. Presently the Americans abhor their invasion of Iraq. Not because they consider the invasion against moral virtue but because they are loosing what they consider a war. Bush dosen't want to be known as an invader that didn't succeed. Americans prefer him to fight people that have a better chance of loosing. Afghanistan is considered to be the "proper" arena where the lions will win. Even Canadians believe this country is best to do killing in. The world sanctions the deaths of Afghanistani as long as a label is placed on them. (Taliban) The media are happy to report their deaths and generals notch their weaponry accordingly.

    Who is mad as a hatter, depends on societies acceptance of their actions. "War" is madness to me but obviously I am the deviant. That makes me "mad as a hatter".

    He has just stated that he doesn't have to listen to Congress and will send the 20,000 troops anyway.

    So.

    Here I was thinking that this was all a strategy to make the Democrats look bad (they could have pulled out now and claimed that they had a winning plan, they were just not allowed to implement it).

    Instead what it appears is happening is that they are declaring themselves a military dictatorship and are now ignoring Congress, with clear intent on now moving on Iran and Syria. So we are talking civil war, folks. They are calling the bluff and going for full takeover. No guts no glory.

    My guess now is that either Congress will immediately move on impeachment, which the Bush administration will refuse to participate with, resulting in a slow death spiral into anarchy and civil war in the US;

    Or the US will expand the occupation in Iraq to include attacks on Iran and Syria. Both countries will be devastated, the world community will increasingly fight against this, with Britain withdrawing all troops from Iraq and pulling out of the war with Iran and Syria. Israel will use tactical nuclear weapons on Iranian nuclear facilities, leading to further world condemnation and loud cheering from the US and Stephen Harper.

    Oil will breach 3 dollars a gallon, and world economies will begin to collapse.

    Due to massive civil unrest in the US, further draconian police state laws will be passed, and for the first time since Kent State, US citizens will begin to be shot dead in the streets while protesting.

    As the war drags to a thrashing, ugly, expensive messy end, civil war will break out in the US.


    So the end result in both cases is good! Great! Bring it on!

    They are not for Iraq but for Iran. The vultures are approaching the gate at this very moment. The US believes Iran is acting "negatively". Obviously the show of force is more then "show".

    And the arrest of the embassy staff is clearly aimed at goading Iran into doing something stupid across the border into Iraq.

    You can't call the president's decision 'the most dangerous decision since the escalation of the Vietnam war', as one Republican did, and then NOT DO ANYTHING when he goes ahead anyway! They HAVE to move on Impeachment now!

    The Democrats are not reacting. Bush will start his 3rd war and one of which (Afghanistan) is sanctioned. He undoubtedly wants sanctions & enforcement for his third, as he did for the first. Goading Iran is just to escalate the third war while he is in power. If the Dems are not interveining, they will not impeach Bush. Perhaps someone will send a Hooker to George and he will lie about the results. Nixon was pardoned but Clinton was not.

    The American people need to move on Washington and physically remove all of the criminals that are at the helm. Then, with an ironic twist, put THOSE CRIINALS into the concentration camps that have popped up everywhere like zits. I'm not sure what it is they are still waiting for...invitations?

    "There is a real possibility, I believe, that we have a clinically insane man sitting in the Oval Office. And, that there are people around him that know it and are using it to further the neocon agenda in the Middle East."

    This statement begs the question of who is really pulling the strings *cough* right VP Cheney?

    "Is the President of U.S.A. mentally ill?

    we we now reduced to responding to rhetorical questions?
    A more fair question (rhetorical of course) would be "are the electorate mentally ill?

    I have openly wondered what would happen if GW Bush would commit suicide. I received a response that things would likely be worse, with Cheney.

    Next in line is the Chief Justice, John Roberts.
