Dennis Kucinich Questions Bush's Mental Health...He Will be Marginalized because of this!
(BUZZFLASH's INCREDIBLE HEADLINE IN FULL CAPS BOLD FONT on FRONT PAGE! Says it ALL ...doesn't it...?

----------------


Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich questioned President Bush's mental health in light of comments he made about a nuclear Iran precipitating World War III. "I seriously believe we have to start asking questions about his mental health," Kucinich (D-OH) said in an interview with The Philadelphia Inquirer's editorial board on Tuesday. Of course, Kucinich will be further marginalized for telling the truth, while the sociopathic, stunted growth Bush will be given a pass.

2. GO DENNIS!
About damn time that somebody in the party spoke truth to power. What I would love to see is the so called Dem leadership try to shut Dennis down like they did Stark. Dennis will tell them to go shove it too.

One of many reasons that I support this man, and frankly about the only reason that I'm still hanging with the Democratic party.

4. Anyone who's read Bush on the Couch wouldn't marginalize Kucinich
From Publishers Weekly
Bush Administration policies are not only a "great catastrophe" but the products of a disturbed mind, according to this provocative blend of psychological case-study and partisan polemic. Psychoanalyst Frank sifts through family memoirs, the writings of critics like Al Franken and David Corn and the public record of Bush’s personal idiosyncrasies for clues to the President’s character, interpreting the evidence in the rigidly Freudian framework of child psychoanalyst Melanie Klein. He finds that Bush, psychically scarred by an absentee father and a cold, authoritarian mother, has developed a galloping case of megalomania, characterized by a Manichaean worldview, delusions of persecution and omnipotence and an "anal/sadistic" indifference to others’ pain, with removal from office the only "treatment option." The author’s exegesis of Bush’s personality traits-the drinking problem, the bellicose rhetoric, the verbal flailings and misstatements of fact, the religiosity and exercise routines, the hints of dyslexia and hyperactivity, the youthful cruelty to animals and schoolmates, the smirk-paints an intriguing, if exaggerated and contemptuous, portrait of a possibly troubled public figure. But Frank’s attempts to translate psychoanalysis into political analysis are unconvincing. Indeed, if Bush’s reneging on campaign promises is a form of clinical "sadism," and his budget deficits an "unconscious attack on his own parents," then Karl Rove, the Cabinet, and both houses of Congress belong in group therapy with him.

What does he have to lose by telling the truth?

6. He's only saying what most people are thinking ... marginalizing him may backfire.
At least, I'd like to think so. Not one to overestimate the American voting public, though.

10. Only by those DU posters who continually yell about decorum
and outrageous comments when anyone criticizes the adminstration or speaks the obvious truth. They'll be lining up soon for the megaphones.

11. redundant... can't get much more marginal than DK without going 3rd party
Edited on Tue Oct-30-07 06:26 PM by 0rganism
Let's face it, at this point, anything Kucinich says that makes the news is a step up for his campaign. He could present a concise, workable plan for solving all the world's problems and still be upstaged in the MSM by Hillary's hairstylist.
