Bush Is Certifiable

[William769]

George W. Bush is suffering from a peculiar but not that uncommon form of madness in which a pathological part of his psyche has co-opted all of the healthy parts into its service.

05/18/06 "Information Clearing House" -- -- Speaking about such a pathological condition, Jung commented that “…an unknown ‘something’ has taken possession of a smaller or greater portion of the psyche and asserts its hateful and harmful existence undeterred by all our insight, reason, and energy, thereby proclaiming the power of the unconscious over the conscious mind, the sovereign power of possession.”

Bush has been taken over by an unconscious complex of the collective unconscious. We speak of a mother complex, or a father complex, but Bush has what we could call a savior complex. Jung said, “The savior complex is an archetypal image of the collective unconscious, and it quite naturally becomes activated in an epoch so full of trouble and disorientation as ours.” The archetypal figure of savior is literally dreamed up into incarnation by the field to be both a compensation for and an expression of the disorientation and dissociation in the field.

Being a reflection of the greater underlying unified field, this figure will embody the unconsciousness of the time. Because of the unconsciousness in the field, the person playing the archetypal role of savior will reflect this unconsciousness and become inflated, blown up out of human proportion by the power of the archetype. He will then, of necessity, be compelled to act out his hubris in a way that is destructive for all who are under his dominion.

1. Too bad this article can't be put into a cute singable jingle so that

the average American can understand what is going on.

2. ... soooo ... the White House needs an Exorcist ? ...

" ... Just because one hears an inner voice doesn’t necessarily mean it is the voice of God. Listened to uncritically, we could just as easily be seduced by the Devil. Bush has become inflated with an archetype of the collective unconscious, which is an expression of madness. He has become identified with one side, the light, of an inherently two-sided polarity, and projects out the other, dark side, which he then tries to destroy. By shadow projecting in this manner, Bush has become possessed by the very evil he is projecting outside of himself.

This is to fall under the spell of the Devil, who is rightly called “the deceiver.” A clearer case of madness is hard to imagine. Jung describes such a situation by saying it is an “…overwhelming manifestation of the “blond beast” , which seizes the unsuspecting soul with nameless shudderings. The seizure transforms him into a hero or godlike being, a superhuman entity. He rightly feels himself “six thousand feet beyond good and evil.” ... "

3. Hmm.. Can you have a Savior Complex & be a Sociopath at the same time? If

so... Bush defines it.

5. Well I feel that I live in the middle of the criminally insane.

So I am no help at all. With the fences going up all over it is really looking bad. I may not get out.

6. I call it the Liar Complex.

That is when a person knowingly lies to others for personal and political gain.
I wouldn't call it pathological.
Some lying is good and healthy. Take the little white lie.
Or the story of Santa.
But when lying contributes to the loss of innocent life...
I would call it criminal.
