“I don’t have the time, the energy or the inclination to psychoanalyze the president’s thought process.”
–GOP Rep. Wayne Gilchrest of Maryland, one of the 45 Republicans supporting the SCHIP expansion, on Bush’s opposition to it.
OK, well I do — the President is a sociopath — he can’t be bothered to care about someone else’s children, or perhaps even his own, since he doesn’t seem to have done a very good job of raising them. But, considering his own past as a child, with his sister Robin, his favorite sibling, dying and his parents not even caring enough to bother telling him she had died, or why she was sent to a hospital when she was ill, it’s understandable. Babs is probably the worst mother in the world, really.
Denying health care for other people’s kids doesn’t bother Bush. He can’t be worried to care about people who can’t afford health care, because they don’t contribute to his political campaigns or figure into the right-wing’s agenda. So “who cares what you think”, would be his response to those who worry about such things.
I really hope that one day all those morons who vote Republican will get that THEY DON’T CARE ABOUT YOU. The poor are poor because they deserve to be poor, according to Bush. They are stupid and lazy and didn’t pick the right parents.
Sociopaths don’t really give a shit about anyone, or about what anyone thinks of them, really. As Bush noted when asked about history’s take on him and his administration, “I’ll be dead then”.
As to Mr. Gilchrest, he ought to look into his own head and find out why he supports such an uncaring, unfeeling, unthinking president.

I have stopped trying to decipher the rank idiocy of the faux-redneck freak show that is the Bush Administration . . .
I’m just breathing deeply, focusing on the positive that crosses my path on a daily basis, and waiting it out . . .
Gilchrest is my Congressman, by the way, and he’s catching hell from the right-wing loons that inhabit my particularly “suthen” and rural neck of the woods (Eastern Shore of Maryland) for his moderate stances . . .
Yeah, I know, I did that for a long time myself, just trying to wait things out.
Sorry you have to live among the loons. So do I. It would be nice to be able to save the moderate Republicans, who are so rare these days, but I am afraid they deserve a lot of the blame for letting their party be hijacked by the wingers. So now I don’t trust anyone who even admits to being of that “brand”.
I think I pay attention mainly to be able to avert the influence of the idiocy on those I know and care about.
Focusing on the positive is a good thing for all of us to do. I think I’ve gone on to working on creating the positive in every moment I can. And perhaps for me part of that is also following the true warrior path and combating the negativity as well.
