Wicked Witch of the West Wing

IS BUSH FINALLY having a meltdown? This is like something out of a Joan Crawford movie! And what a gutter mouth on Dubya! I mean imagine how he sounded before he found Jesus! But before I get ahead of myself - rumors are flying that things are getting mighty ugly at Castle Crawford now that everyone knows the king has no clothes! Perhaps his "vacation" is actually a convalescence. I don't know how true this story is but history shows (i.e. Nixon's meltdown, Ronnie's short workdays, Nancy's tirades and Bill's dalliances) that there tends to be more than just a grain of truth to these Whitehouse rumors. Well, it sure sounds like classic Dubya. We all knew this creep was a bully but apparently now the old outhouse door is flying off its hinges. Not unlike Dorothy's house in the Wizard of Oz - remember that story involving a wicked witch and a city led by a wizard - who is actually controlled by a white-haired man hiding behind...ok, too creepy. And By the way, when then hell do we get to wake up from our nightmare? Oh Auntie Em, where are you???

So I'm reading about Dubya's mental breakdown and I'm thinking it all sounds so familiar! Hmmm...let's see? War protest, check...president caught in a lie, check...private citizens unraveling a corrupt administration, check...Presidential temper tantrums and public unraveling, check! Folks, pull out those old Jefferson Airplane records, its deja vu all over again!

Bush's Obscene Tirades Rattle White House Aides

While President George W. Bush travels around the country in a last-ditch effort to sell his Iraq war, White House aides scramble frantically behind the scenes to hide the dark mood of an increasingly angry leader who unleashes obscenity-filled outbursts at anyone who dares disagree with him.

“I’m not meeting again with that goddamned bitch,” Bush screamed at aides who suggested he meet again with Cindy Sheehan, the war-protesting mother whose son died in Iraq. “She can go to hell as far as I’m concerned!”

Bush, administration aides confide, frequently explodes into tirades over those who protest the war, calling them “motherfucking traitors.” He reportedly was so upset over Veterans of Foreign Wars members who wore “bullshit protectors” over their ears during his speech to their annual convention that he told aides to “tell those VFW assholes that I’ll never speak to them again is they can’t keep their members under control.”

White House insiders say Bush is growing increasingly bitter over mounting opposition to his war in Iraq. Polls show a vast majority of Americans now believe the war was a mistake and most doubt the President’s honesty.

“Who gives a flying fuck what the polls say,” he screamed at a recent strategy meeting. “I’m the President and I’ll do whatever I goddamned please. They don’t know shit.”

Bush, whiles setting up for a photo op for signing the recent CAFTA bill, flipped an extended middle finger to reporters. Aides say the President often “flips the bird” to show his displeasure and tells aides who disagree with him to “go to hell” or to “go fuck yourself.” His habit of giving people the finger goes back to his days as Texas governor, aides admit, and videos of him doing so before press conferences were widely circulated among TV stations during those days. A recent video showing him shooting the finger to reporters while walking also recently surfaced.

Bush’s behavior, according to prominent Washington psychiatrist, Dr. Justin Frank, author of “Bush on the Couch: Inside the Mind of the President,” is all too typical of an alcohol-abusing bully who is ruled by fear...
