11. The Silverspoon Sociopath is hanging' on to his
delusion of being "The War Prez."

He actually thinks that he is charge. That physical didn't include a mental checkup.

14. MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT.....We have a DUFUS PRESIDENT
Bush is the EXTREME PRESIDENT....he is at the extreme LOW END OF THE Presidential SCALE....

Extremely Stupid for a person in that Position.

Like letting a high schooler Captain Nuke Subs or Aircraft Carriers...

Ya just don do it.

15. Make no mistake about it....
this is exactly what he wants.

As Helen Thomas said, “How can you want to be a war president? No past president, not even Eisenhower, wanted to be known as a war president.”

Bush wanted more than anything to be a "war president." And he will never give the position up willingly.

20. Sein Kampf ist gegen uns
They FBI isn't looking for people with guns and bombs. They're "investigating" protesters/demonstrators, the ACLU, and Democratic Party politicians.

That is Bush's "Global Struggle Against Violent Extremism."

The definition of "violent extremist" is "political opposition."

22. The difference between us and them
is that they're proposing a struggle against violent extremism, while we're proposing a non-violent struggle against extremism
