I read that Robert, and compared it to the feelings and thoughts I had after watching GW and Laura Bush on TV last night during the Larry King interview. GW certainly is comfortable as King. There were things he said we know are wrong, yet in his mind they're right. It's mostly his religious convictions, his business partners and his wealthy, coddled upbringing that makes him so sure of himself. I can see why the Right follow him. He makes sense.....to them.
Bet he never had to share his Wheaties.
We all get to live with it, plus his unwavering, in-your-face......rule.
In some respects, I admire him for his conviction (please don't throw this in my face sometime in the future), I like people who are confident. But anyone can appear polite and rational in a one hour interview.
But this is the man who starts pre-emptive wars, allows torture, is spying on Americans and crushing dissent and is quickly breaking the country's back through fiscal irresponsibilty. What we may be left with are the rotten fruits from his rule.
He is so sure of himself (and now has the power through Congress to start war whenever he likes), it occured to me that he could start a nuclear world war just by his CONVICTIONS, his religion and his power. And he wouldn't blink twice.
The rest of us wouldn't even have time to pick up the kids up from school or stockpile food.
That's scary.
(Should I pray to God to guide him?? Yikes!!!!!!!!!!!)
