Bush Is Certifiable
George W. Bush is suffering from a peculiar but not that uncommon form of madness.

By Paul Levy

Bush literally feels himself above human morality, as he is under the self-generating delusion that he is the supreme moral arbiter, not realizing in the slightest that he has fallen into his unconscious, whose dark side he is acting out. Because of his pathological condition, he is the last person who should be the judge of morality, the very last person on earth choosing justices for the Supreme Court.

1. When you talk to God, it's called praying.
When God talks back, it's called schizophrenia.

5. Here is my take...
It is the fundamental embracing of creating reality from enforced illusion. A "If you build it , they will come" ideology. Take a moment to consider the power of choosing to embrace an illusion. If you truly wish to believe that you are God's chosen by eradicating evil, making the world a good and righteous place and shutting out any voice as a dangerous attack to this ultimate belief in your own saintliness, then you begin to understand the self confirmation process that Shrubster is engaged in 24-7. It is a state of self induced psychosis. A very real and aggressive choice to embrace the opium pipe and give it greater substance than true reality. If an individual succeeds in this way, then there is no way he can lose. He truly creates his own reality. It stops mattering what others percieve. Only those who agree with your illusions are granted entrance to your special world.

As a nation, we are inherently optimistic visualizers. The very founding of our Democratic Representative from of Government is based on the ideology of "First you dream it, then you make it happen." So in a sense we are very vulnerable to this profound misdirection of policy that has attempted to destroy reality. Our very holders and reporters of reality, the media, have no longer given us tools to properly assess how valid the dream is and if it is based on concrete truths. We waste our time talking to those who have embraced this psychosis. You cannot force the insane understand reality, they must come to it themselves. However, if we offer a new dream to the American people, one that is based on truths that all can share as a common reality, then we can redirect away from this horror show that has captured our National zeitgeist and continue to become an ever greater and forward moving force.

I believe it is starting to happen, but the followers are still not just yet ready for a leader. But it is starting to happen and this leader is out there ready to be embraced. Soon, soon, we still have time...
