Book reveals Bush's bouts of crying, ghostly visions
This is a scary book.
This is the guy who told Middle East leaders that God had spoken to him and
told him it was his destiny to attack and liberate Iraq ? Scary , scary
stuff...
As far back as 1992 - "Mr. Bush insists "he saw ghosts - coming out of the
wall," according to the friend."
I don't doubt he did see ghost or evil spirits ...
I would predict he will certainly see the ghosts of the dead the rest of his
life -
if he develops a conscience and
if he lives long enough - and
if he is made aware
of the deadly effects of the DU and "shock and awe" and the inevitable bleak
blow back from this costly war of profiteers and misguided prophets...
and not to mention the haunting cries of those Americans he allowed to bloat
and float in New Orleans while he biked and played guitar at a fund
raiser....
How shockingly scary is his utter lack of "nobility" and respect for his
position or the "just a goddam piece of paper, US Constitution" - - when given
his long term post Presidential goals :
* "He said he plans to "replenish the ol' coffers" by speaking on the
lecture circuit, where he can make "ridiculous" money recounting his
experiences.
* "I don't know what my dad gets. But it's more than 50, 75 [thousand
dollars]," he said. "Clinton's making a lot of money."
This guy really was the perfect front dummy for the real players in the
money and governing elite who manipulate events and people for profit and
power.
Peace, Hugs, and Purrs,
"No one man can terrorize a whole nation unless we are all his accomplices."

Edward R Murrow
Remember the fallen, fight for the weak,
share with all, and reincarnate to another galaxy -
but first restore the Constitution !

Book reveals Bush's bouts of crying, ghostly visions

WASHINGTON • George W. Bush, the U.S. President, is prone to bouts of crying
caused by the stress of his job and claims to have seen ghosts emerge from
the Lincoln Bedroom in the White House, according to a new book on his
presidency.
In a series of remarkably candid admissions by a sitting president, Mr. Bush
confides to author John Draper he has been "sustained by the discipline of
the faithful experience" during the most difficult days of his presidency.
"I've got God's shoulder to cry on. And I cry a lot," Mr. Bush says in Dead
Certain: The Presidency of George W. Bush, which was released to U.S.
bookstores yesterday. "I do a lot of crying in this job. I'll bet I've shed
more
tears than you can count, as president. I'll shed some tomorrow."
Mr. Draper interviewed Mr. Bush six times for the book - most recently in
May, 2007 - and coaxed a bevy of previously unknown details about some of the
most turbulent moments of his presidency.
Dead Certain details his reluctance to seek UN approval for an Iraq war
resolution because of his contempt for the international body.
Mr. Bush describes his continuing dislike for the United Nations by
recounting running across former president Bill Clinton at a UN meeting in
June,
2006.
"Six years from now, you're not gonna see me hanging out in the lobby of the
UN," he insisted.
The book casts Mr. Bush as disengaged - almost uninterested - as Hurricane
Katrina approached the Gulf Coast on Aug. 28, 2005.
On the day before the hurricane struck New Orleans, he spent a day riding his
mountain bike and swimming on his ranch in Crawford, Tex.
By the time he joined an emergency video conference about Katrina, he was so
"gassed" by his physical exertion he did not ask any questions about the
federal government's preparedness, the book says.
The President also candidly reveals the emotional toll Iraq has taken on him,
saying overseeing the current troop surge has been a "tiring period."
Discussing his past battles with alcohol, he says he would never be able to
make decision on war if he was still drinking.
"Exercise helps. And I think prayer helps," he says. "I wouldn't be President
if I kept drinking. You can get sloppy, can't make decisions. It clouds your
reason, absolutely."
The book also adds new information about his administration's over-optimistic
assessment of how quickly the United States would stabilize Iraq after the
2003 invasion.
When a senior congressional Republican warned Dick Cheney in August, 2002,
the United States would get mired in Iraq, the Vice-President reportedly
scoffed.
"It'll be like the American army going through the streets of Paris [in the
Second World War]," he said. "The people will be so happy with their freedoms
that we'll probably back ourselves out of there within a month or two."
Despite the current problems plaguing Iraq, Mr. Bush seems "more serene"
about the prospects for victory and is already planning his career after the
White House.
He said he plans to "replenish the ol' coffers" by speaking on the lecture
circuit, where he can make "ridiculous" money recounting his experiences.
"I don't know what my dad gets. But it's more than 50, 75 [thousand
dollars]," he said. "Clinton's making a lot of money."
Perhaps the oddest revelation is an episode from 1992, when his father was
president.
The younger Mr. Bush found the White House a "creepy place," Mr. Draper
writes.
After exercising in a White House gym one evening, he told a friend he froze
in his steps while approaching the Lincoln Bedroom.
Mr. Bush insists "he saw ghosts - coming out of the wall," according to the
friend.
