Report: In Meeting, ‚Äö√Ñ√≤Wild-Eyed’ Bush Thumped Chest While Repeating ‚Äö√Ñ√≤I Am The President!’
Georgie Anne Geyer: A spreading terror
But by all reports, President Bush is more convinced than ever of his righteousness. Friends of his from Texas were shocked recently to find him nearly wild-eyed, thumping himself on the chest three times while he repeated “I am the president!” He also made it clear he was setting Iraq up so his successor could not get out of “our country’s destiny.”
I suppose this was bound to happen. Give a man virtually unlimited power (this sort of thing will happen when Congress functions as a rubber stamp for six years)…and pretty soon he begins to see it as his birthright…King George the Worst © , indeed.
Of course, I don’t know the circumstances of this outburst, and frankly, I don’t much care. What I do care about is that it seems to be increasingly indicative of Our Glorious and Benevolent Leader’s © public persona- a man so convinced of his own righteous rectitude that he is willing to sacrifice our sons and daughters in order to prove his point. It’s as if he’s forgotten that he’s the PRESIDENT of the United States, not King of the Free World. His arrogant dismissal of those who dare to disagree as unpatriotic, anti-American terrorist sympathizers can and should be taken as indication of just how dangerously out of touch he is.
Then there’s the whole “consent of the governed” thing. When only 28% of Americans support the President, you’d think he’d catch a clue. When you’re The Worst President EVER © , you can act as if you think that 72% of Americans hate America.
[S]ome big money players up from Texas recently paid a visit to their friend in the White House. The story goes that they got out exactly one question, and the rest of the meeting consisted of The President in an extended whine, a rant, actually, about no one understands him, the critics are all messed up, if only people would see what he’s doing things would be OK‚Äö√Ѭ∂etc., etc. This is called a “bunker mentality” and it’s not attractive when a friend does it. When the friend is the President of the United States, it can be downright dangerous. Apparently the Texas friends were suitably appalled, hence the story now in circulation.
Yes, more than 54 million of y’all voted for this monomaniacal war criminal in 2004. For the past three years, I’ve been trying to figure out how so many well-meaning Americans could have been so STUPID and sheep-like. Now that 72% of Americans oppose Commander Codpiece © , most of y’all should stop and realize that while you may be angry about the war in Iraq, you need to recognize that if you voted for Our Glorious and Benevolent Leader © you’re complicit. If you voted Republican, the clusterf—k in Iraq and the resulting wasted American lives are on your hands as well. You could have made a difference, but you chose to swallow the propaganda whole.
STILL GLAD YOU VOTED REPUBLICAN??
