Doctor puts 'Bush on the Couch'

…Bush
shows an inability to grieve - dating back to age 7, when his sister died.
"The family's reaction - no funeral and no mourning - set in motion his
life-long pattern of turning away from pain [and hiding] behind antic
behavior," says Frank, who contends Bush may suffer from Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder….

Reagan played decisive role in Saddam Hussein's survival in
Iran-Iraq war

…Reagan,
determined to check arch-foe Iran, opened a back door to Iraq through which
flowed US intelligence and hundreds of millions of dollars in loan
guarantees even as Washington professed neutrality in Baghdad's war with
Tehran…. |
I don't know which is more
disturbing--that Bush is a megalomaniac or the obsequious, distorted media
coverage of Ronald Reagan's career. Decisions, decisions...
``The
Washington Post revealed that in 2002, the Justice Department sent a memo to the
White House justifying the use of torture. Torture - that's our Department of
'Justice' - they say `It's OK to torture people.' What's the Department of
Education doing? Burning books?''

The
government has long denied that two days after the 9/11 attacks, the three were

TAMPA -
Two days after the Sept. 11 attacks, with most of the nation's air traffic still
grounded, a small jet landed at Tampa International Airport, picked up three
young Saudi men and left...
...Perez, the former FBI agent on the flight, could not be located this week,
and Grossi declined to talk about the experience.
"I'm over it," he said in a telephone interview. "The White House, the FAA and
the FBI all said the flight didn't happen. Those are three agencies that are way
over my head, and that's why I'm done talking about it."
Grossi did say that Unger's account of his participation in the flight is
accurate...
Well, well, well...I guess BushInc couldn't
keep this story under the covers forever.

…Nancy Reagan
had correct but very cool relations with Barbara Bush and, according to some
Republicans, wanted George H.W. Bush, the vice president, removed from the
ticket in 1984. One of her frequent luncheon companions was columnist George
Will, who began attacking Bush as a "lap dog."…

The Gipper's Dignified Request
No congressional Democrats were invited to address a ceremony at the Capitol
on Wednesday upon Reagan's arrival in Washington. The funeral was planned in
detail by Reagan and his family dating back to 1989 when he left office.

Reagan, during his 1980 campaign, blamed trees for emitting 93 percent of the
nation's nitrogen oxide pollution -- giving rise to jokes about killer trees.
-
Reagan fired 13,000 air traffic controllers in 1981 after they staged a work
stoppage and used the National Labor Relations Board to crack down on labor
unions. Reagan also banned the controllers from ever working again in their
field. Clinton lifted that ban.

The
Reagan administration showed indifference to an emerging AIDS crisis.

Reagan supported mujaheddin rebels in Afghanistan in their prolonged battle
against occupying Soviet forces. As part of that initiative, the CIA supported
Muslim radicals from other Islamic countries. One of the first non-Afghan
volunteers to join the ranks of the mujaheddin was Osama bin Laden.
-
The
Reagan administration in 1984 secretly sold arms to Iran, a terrorist nation,
to raise cash for the Nicaraguan contras, despite a congressional ban on
support for the Latin American insurgency. An independent investigation
concluded that the arms sales to Iran operations "were carried out with the
knowledge of, among others, President Ronald Reagan (and) Vice President
George Bush" and that "large volumes of highly relevant, contemporaneously
created documents were systematically and willfully withheld from
investigators by several Reagan Administration officials."
-
Fourteen officials were criminally charged and 11 convicted, although many
were later pardoned. Lawrence Walsh, the independent counsel who ran the
Iran-Contra inquiry, said there was "no credible evidence" that Reagan himself
broke the law, but he set the stage for the illegal activities of others.
Impeachment, Walsh said, "certainly should have been considered."
-
Reagan administration for five years provided military intelligence, economic
aid and covert supplies of munitions to Iraq's armies in support of Saddam
Hussein's war with Iran. The administration ignored Iraq's use of chemical
weapons and treated Saddam's regime as the lesser of two evils.

Until
a public protest forced Reagan to back away, his Agriculture Department sought
to cut the school lunch program and redefine ketchup and relish as vegetables.
-
The
combination of a huge "supply-side" tax cut, a historic military buildup and a
painful two-year recession produced huge budget deficits and a nearly tripling
of the national debt that haunted the country and policymakers for years and
drained resources from social programs.

"Saturday is the senior President Bush's 80th birthday and he's going ahead with
plans to skydive into his Texas presidential library. George W. Bush may attend
and, of course, he's nervous. As he always is when he goes near a library.''

A George Bush
Fan
A teacher
in a small Texas town asks her class how many of them are George Bush fans. Not
really knowing what a George Bush fan is, but wanting to be liked by the
teacher, all the kids raise their hands except one boy.
The teacher asks Johnny why he has decided to be different. Johnny says, "I'm
not a George Bush fan."
The teacher says, "Why aren't you a George Bush fan?" Johnny says, "I'm a John
Kerry fan."
The teacher asks why he's a John Kerry fan. The boy says, "Well, my mom's a John
Kerry fan and my dad's a John Kerry fan, so I'm a John
Kerry fan!"
The teacher is kind of angry, because this is Texas, so she asks, "What if your
mom was a moron and your dad was an idiot, what would
that make you?"
Johnny says, "That would make me a George Bush fan."
"Barbara
Bush looks more and more like George Washington everyday."
Seen here
I miss the
good old days when Nancy Reagan and Barbara Bush would engage in public
catfights. Ahh, those were the days of true honor and dignity.
