President George W. Bush's paranoid megalomania is so rampant that close friends and supporters worry about the man's sanity and fear he has lost his tenuous grip on reality. Bush, whose arrogant stubbornness knows no bounds, is so wrapped up in his obsession with being President and "commander-in-chief" that his behavior shocks his most ardent supporters. Writes syndicated columnist Georgie Anne Geyer: Arnaud de Borchgrave, the rabid Bush supporter who edits the right-wing Washington Times and runs what is left of United Press International, also reports on the meeting: When a recent visitor asked him what assurance he could give about his successor in 2009, President Bush replied, "we'll fix it so he'll be locked in." The visitor left perplexed and wondered whether that might mean the U.S. would be in a wider war in the region by then. In any event, it didn't sound like twilight time for Mr. Bush. A Texan friend of longstanding called on him recently and confided to his Washington hosts that Mr. Bush had said three times, bringing a clenched fist to his chest, "I'm the president." Reminding visiting political opponents of this would be normal, but the close friend said he was a taken aback a bit as he had never before seen Mr. Bush in this mode." What these close friends see is a madman on the edge, a delusional paranoid whose brain is fried by too many years of hard drinking and probably too much cocaine up his nose. Compared to Bush, Richard M. Nixon appears sane and stone cold sober. Hell, history will probably cast legendary drunk Ulysses S. Grant as a President more in control of himself. Not only is he wrapped up in the aura of "I'm the President," but he is now determined that anyone who follows him will have to live with his legacy of lies, deceit and despair - his failed war in Iraq, his cancer on "our country's destiny." The fate of this nation - and indeed the fate of the world - may well depend on the deranged mind of a truly insane President of the United States.
"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.""
"The self-described "Decider" is the antithesis of self-doubt. Like an old seadog, he relishes the idea of plowing into rough seas.

ping!
It makes me crazy when I see the Communist fist presented as if it in any way represents the restoration of our Constitutional Republic. Dr. Paul does not raise his fist in this manner, but I've seen John Kerry and others do so.
CadetD, Thanks for letting me know what that image meant to you. It of course does not represent Ron Paul's personal mannerisms. But to me, it represents breaking through the censorship. Fighting the MSM. Fighting for our nations survival. It's a powerful image. But, in no way would I want that image to connect by pre-conception, the policies and practices of Ron Paul, to a tarnished history. I would never want to do anything that would imply Ron Pauls position or base, as anything other than a group seeking to restore the republic.. Nor would I want such an image to hurt the chances of Ron Pauls Presidency. I will give great consideration now to posting that one again, knowing now, what feelings it evokes from others. It's not to antagonize, or misrepresent. To me, it represents that we much unite and fight. I even wonder IF there will be an election in 2008. Again, thanks for sharing your feelings on this. Best resgards, Calamity
