TOON: Is George W. Bush DELUSIONAL?




Bush Living In A Fantasy World (link)

1. He believes God told him to go to war against Iraq.
2. He believes we are winning the war.
3. He believes Republicans will retain control of both houses.

Bush is living in a world of pure imagination ... or as John Kerry says, in a fantasy world of spin.

1. Born Again - Again
To a psychiatrist - and to everyone else, for that matter - who takes words seriously, Bush's statement that "we've never been 'stay-the-course'" means that he is delusional about himself and therefore able to split off his own past completely from memory. It also means that he truly believes that the American people will also forget what he said in the past - an even more profound case for his being unfit to remain President.

We have heard his delusions before, but they have always been about external events such as global warming, how the war is going in Iraq and Afghanistan, and how our economy is faring. We have never heard him flatly dismiss, in such a clear and carefree way, his own exact words. At this rate, he might suddenly wake up one day to say that he was never even elected President in the first place. But that's unlikely, since in fact, it may actually be true.

2. Bush War Plans Delusional From Start
Bush's messianic view of himself and belief he is our great protector, the fearless commander saving us from evil, is reflected in his stars, according to Fugger: "These are people who can have difficulties keeping themselves from the collective, and in fact, can become the physical embodiment of the collective's need for expression at any given time. It requires a great deal of self-reflection not to succumb to the emotion that one is the savior for that group."

Born July 6, 1946, at 7:26 a.m., in New Haven, Conn., Bush is unconsciously motivated to prove his worth to his father.

Fugger is convinced Bush is depressed and on the eve of destruction, citing Paul Levy's article, "The Madness of George Bush: A Reflection of our Collective Psychosis."

Levy describes our chilling national plight: "With Bush as president, it's as if we're in a car going over the speed limit driven by a drunk adolescent who has fallen asleep at the wheel. It's our responsibility to recognize the extreme danger of our situation and come together to do something about it, whatever that might be."
