4. Anger would be my guess.....................
Bush's behavior last night was far worse than anything Al did on 2000,yet again, the lowered expectations everyone has for King Georgie
are once again letting him off easy. Are people so enamored by a witless moron that they'll continue to give him free passes every time he fails so miserably?

6. I'm reminded of:
<snip>

"No one would have been surprised if a policeman had taken him by the scruff of the neck in the middle of his first speech and removed him to some place which he would never have emerged again, and where he doubtless belonged. As nothing of the sort happened and, on the contrary, the man surpassed himself, becoming ever more deranged and monstrous, and also more notorious, more impossible to ignore, the effect was reversed. It was then that the real mystery of the Hitler phenomenon began to show itself: the strange befuddlement and numbness of his opponents, who could not cope with his behavior and found themselves transfixed by the gaze of the basilisk, unable to see that it was hell personified that challenged them"

<snip>

"Defying Hitler", by Sebastian Haffner, Chapter 14

5. He is probably thinking
that as long as someone gets that asshole it will be alright, but it would have been cool to be on stage for my reelection campaign
