OK, raise your hands out there..

I do this with great trepidation, because I take this very seriously (In the interest of full disclosure, I see a psychiatrist regularly and have a prescription for a tightly controlled psychoactive substance--I am the poster boy for adult ADD and take Concerta). That said--

Raise your hand if you think we have a %^&*$ing CRAZY man in the White House?

I don't mean stupid, evil, incompetent (although I exclude NONE of those). I mean just totally NUTS, BONKERS, INSANE, you name it.

I swear, he is just crazy.

Thoughts?

What is far MORE frightening to me is the notion that this guy isn't merely crazy, but also religiously crazy - as in self-fulfilling messianic (probably misspelled)nutso, let's win-one-for-the-xians crazy....

This man has a marine walking within a few feet of him at all times. That marine is holding a little black satchel with all our nuclear codes. Only Drinkey McMessiah-Complex has the key to said satchel..... yikes!

I'll agree that he's wacko-loonie-gaga crazy if you'll include stupid, evil and incompetent in the deffinition.

He's only crazy the way the Branch Davidians are.

I whole heartedly agree. This has been a theme on Air America this past week, where people with psychology training have been calling Bush insane. Now, you can always find an "expert" to back up whatever you want to say, but it's clear that reality and Herr Chimpster are passing acquainances at best.

Let's see, does a megalomaniacal drive to be the one bringing about the "End Times" qualify as "crazy"?

It was one thing when we just thought of him as stupid, aloof, spoiled, and mean. Those things, while deplorable in the fucking PRESIDENT, are at least mostly predictable and manageable, and the damage is largely undoable after he leaves.

But "crazy" is a whole new can of worms. Turning some crosseyed nutjob vision of the end times into fucking reality--smoking, glowing, melted glass REALITY--is really starting to worry me.

Just this morning, my partners and I were discussing how fast the pressure wave from a nuclear detonation travels. We were speculating on whether we'd see it coming up here in Evanston when the Chinese or the Russians drop a 5 megaton nuke on the Loop, and what it might look like. It would probably be spectacular to see the rumbling dust cloud work its way up the lakeshore at the speed of sound or greater, flattening all those ugly high rise apartments in Edgewater on the way here. Bonus!

Best guess is we'd have a few seconds, assuming we weren't blinded by the flash, before our building got knocked over too.
