Has Bush made this a personal thing between himself and Cindy Sheehan? |
|
From the crowd he spoke with and his thanking the mother who has four sons in Iraq. (Has she lost any of them yet?) That does tend to put a different perspective on it. But Bush seems to have turned this into a personal matter between himself and Cindy? He's a very petty individual but would he be that petty??

9. I had exactly the same thought before I opened the thread... |
|
Yes, he and his Siamese twin, Karl Rove, enjoy the feeling of power they experience when they can smear, tarnish, crush and destroy their "enemies."

2. Yeah But If It's "Families Like Hers" Who Make Murka Great |
|
What does that say about families like Bush's where NOBODY goes to the war they SUPPORT....how many grandkids does Barbara Bush have, like 17? What about families like them, how come they don't emulate that lady, after all -- it's the last throes!

3. I believe he sees everything in personal terms. |
|
He is unable to divorce himself as president from the office of the Prezident. Therefore any opposition to him or his actions or his choices are spun as opposition to the office.

5. Yes, he is that petty. |
|
Also, how tall is he, really, and how tall is Cindy Sheehan? That petty, yes indeed. And that shallow. He has to be the big man and everybody has to agree with him or all stops get pulled out to demolish them.
Remember the remark he made about dictatorships being easier? He obviously meant it. Democracy and the Bill of Rights really give him fits.

Petty is entertainment for this sort. Entertaining to be spiteful and get away with it, like any child. And as far as a personal grudge, I have to agree, somewhat, but I wonder, because it takes a certain amount of humanity for that, and I don't honestly think he respects life enough to even see her as a living human, to the degree that he looks at her the same as a bug. I mean that honestly. To him she's a bug, and NOTHING about her life or her feelings get into his head. Squashing her would provide a satisfying crunch, and that's all. She's a bug to him. Not a human. Not a life. Just as her son was a pawn, meaningless to him, and he shed not a tear when he talked to her about him.
Further, as a woman, she's just that little bit more trivial. To that mindset, which surely includes his, in spades.

7. Inferiority Complex Deluxe |
|
The Chimp takes all criticism personal! He is kept away from any demonstration against his policies and his administration. I will be willing to bet they cut out the articles in the news papers that are critical of this Fortunate Son. He is an insecure spoiled rich punk, with a Napoleonic inferiority complex deluxe!

15. They would excise critical articles |
|
Except Busholini claims he doesn't read newspapers. Why should he, when he had God's direct line phone number?

8. no limits to these folks |
|
frankly I am surprised that they have't posthumously given Casey a dishonorable discharge, dug up his grave and danced on his bones. They have done just about everything else.

11. Oh yes! Just like his Mama! In TX, we've seen it for yrs. Remember |
|
the debates? Specifically the 2nd debate, I believe. When Kerry absolutely got a burr under Bush's saddle and he couldn't hide it, no matter how hard he tried?
I loved it! The faces, the aggressive posturing, the nervous tics, saying something like "I know that!" when it was pointed out it was Al Queda (not Iraq) that attacked us, etc., etc.
CLASSIC GWB
As a long-time Bush sufferer, I was relishing his coming apart at the seams, it was beautiful.
Now, it's happening all over again with the mother of a dead soldier, and trust me, I am on the edge of my seat just waiting for the petulant child to have a magnificent meltdown. If only his "handlers" can be distracted from their babysitting duties.
He is EXACTLY like his harridan mother in this regard. She can never keep her mouth shut when something nasty is forming on her tongue.
