Seymour Hersh has finally convinced me that George W. Bush is certifiably insane. By that I mean nuts, wacko, a few fries short of a happy meal, call it what you will.
If Mr. Hersh, who has broken so many important stories tells me that the Leader of the Free World believes that by dropping a few nuclear bombs on what our "Military Intelligence" believes are Iranian nuclear sites that he will save the world, folks we are in big trouble.
If Bush actually believes that after screwing up royally in Afganistan (Where is Bin Laden anyway) and Iraq that this time in Iran things will go just swimmingly and we will be greeted as liberators, he is a menace.
If Bush actually believes that no other President, Republican or Democrat will have the courage to do what he believes needs to be done, or worse yet what he believes that God wants him to do, then he has reached the realm of people who wander around the happy home believing that they are Napoleon, or Jesus.
The Founding Fathers did an incredible job of building checks and balances into our system but could they have imagined the possibility of an mega- maniacal President who's party controls both houses of Congress, and was brought to power by an election process that is corrupted by corporate interests at every level and a media that is owned by same corporate interests.
Maybe someone with contacts in the great beyond needs to channel the ghost of Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and Alexander Hamilton because we ain't doing too good here.
