Bush's Erratic Behavior Worries White House Aides

President George W. Bush’s increasingly erratic behavior and wide mood swings has the halls of the West Wing buzzing lately as aides privately express growing concern over their leader’s state of mind.

In meetings with top aides and administration officials, the President goes from quoting the Bible in one breath to obscene tantrums against the media, Democrats and others that he classifies as “enemies of the state.”

Worried White House aides paint a portrait of a man on the edge, increasingly wary of those who disagree with him and paranoid of a public that no longer trusts his policies in Iraq or at home.

“It reminds me of the Nixon days,” says a longtime GOP political consultant with contacts in the White House. “Everybody is an enemy; everybody is out to get him. That’s the mood over there.”

In interviews with a number of White House staffers who were willing to talk off the record, a picture of an administration under siege has emerged, led by a man who declares his decisions to be “God’s will” and then tells aides to “fuck over” anyone they consider to be an opponent of the administration.

1. Wait until November nt

[AlCzervik]

2. I'd love to get a looksee

at his enemies list.

[emulatorloo]

3. Asscrack just put your name on it!

and now mine too!

:toast:

[AlCzervik]

10. I flew back east awhile back

to visit my family, my husband told me i was probably on the no fly list!

[emulatorloo]

18. You are on every list they have! Sorry, no airline Chicken Dish for you!

It has been reported that you checked out Richard Clarke's book three weeks ago from the public library!

That is a no-no -- from now on you will not have the choice between Chicken or Beef. Only Beef until you repent!

[AlCzervik]

19. I buy books with cash only!

My local library has had it's budget cut big time...no surprise their.

[TreasonousBastard]

6. We will, once he's out of office.

[brook]

4. Chilling as it is...

I hope these 'exposes' keep coming. Like water on a stone, perhaps the public (maybe even his own party) will finally shed their illusions about this "War President" and see him for the fanatic he really is.

[in_cog_ni_to]

5. Man, I wish I could be a fly on a wall

in that WH.

[justjones]

35. You may want to rethink wishing to be a fly on the wall in the WH....

Because Bush might get to a point where he is trying to eat you.....

Just a thought. :evilgrin:

[Jacobin]

7. I'm wondering how this is any different from how he's always been

Nice to see in print what we have all known for a long time.

He's nuts. Bonkers. Flip City. Not connected to reality. Delusional. Ignorant. Psychopathic. Megalomaniacal. Narcissistic, with messianic tendencies.

[Hornito]

8. Frankly, I've never been prouder to be an.....

"enemy of the state". You should be proud too. Come November, Bush is going to find around 100 MILLION "enemies of the state", voting to throw his ass out!

Wonder what his merry little band of neonazicon-fascists will cook up between now and then? Small minds can do awful things....

[Beetwasher]

9. This is Very Believable and Would Explain A Lot

If this is true, expect many more abrubt departures soon in the vein of Tenet and Pavitt. People will start distancing themselves from the madman in droves.

This has also been pretty accurately predicted on DU through our off the cuff psychological profiling. This reported behavior is exactly what I would expect under the given circumstances.

[dusty64]

22. I hope he has

a full breakdown on camera. Let the truth of this madman war criminal be seen by ALL!

[Stephanie]

11. Is this a credible source?

Can people in DC tell us whether this source is read there? The story makes sense to me.

[Beetwasher]

12. I Think They're Borderline Credible

They've hit and missed so it seems.

If this is true, expect many more abrubt departures soon in the vein of Tenet and Pavitt. People will start distancing themselves from the madman in droves.

13. This thread discusses it

[Cyrano]

24. This was posted on Atrios today and he said

that he indicated that Capitol Hill Blue wasn't necessarily to be trusted, but that it made a good read.

[indigobusiness]

25. A good read, indeed.

As high-handed as it is, it has the ring of truth.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

14. kick.

[indigobusiness]

23. thanks n/t

[JohnyCanuck]

15. Don't you get a warm and fuzzy feeling,

knowing that a wacko nut case (who probably believes Armageddon is right around the corner as per the usual fundamentalist theories) has his finger on a nuclear trigger?

[CWebster]

16. And they sent him to Europe

when he should be in a cage?

[DinahMoeHum]

17. I wonder if George has hit the bottle again, if not already. . .

who knows?

:evilgrin:

[indigobusiness]

28. looks like he's medicating

someway

[UTUSN]

20. Can He Melt Down on Camera, Please? n/t

[Ann Arbor Dem]

21. One can only hope..... n/t

[Poiuyt]

31. Wait til the debates

If anyone ever asked him for a followup to one of his inane answers, he'd lose if for sure.

[Ilsa]

36. That's exactly what we need!

An innocuous question from that incredibly popular tv journalist, Paula Zahn, ( :puke: ) and DimSon gets his cage rattled, starts ranting about incarcerating Catholics or some other non-fundie group, then starts crying hysterically about his mother never hugging him.

27. good link/thread n/t

[Tom Kitten]

29. I'm printing this article out...

(only 2 pages) and leaving it on buses, in restaurant booths, anywhere in public where people are looking for things to read...

This article might sound like a fantasy but I'm sure it's much closer to the truth than the shit we're spoonfed on tv every day for years now!

[West Coast Democrat]

30. This is too funny....we should spread this story as much as possible

...now that the GOP has now resorted to calling Kerry a Communist sympathizer.

[indigobusiness]

34. GOP namecalling is one of the best

assets of the Dems.

[wtmusic]

32. This is beautiful, sweet, delicious, serene, majestic, spacious, grand

(just keep his pudgy little finger away from the button)

[MoonRiver]

33. What goes round, comes round,

like a boomerang. Eat your own *hit, *.

[indigobusiness]

37. Karmic law is lost on the GOP

"It was George that farted, I swear to God."

[MoonRiver]

38. lolol!

It may be lost on them, but they will have to eat it anyway! :D

[indigobusiness]

39. of course...that's the point...

if it wasn't lost on them, they wouldn't be mahiavellian moral relativists...and life would be better for everybody.
