This is one of the sources that praised and solidly endorsed Dr. Justin Frank's fine work on the tenuous mental status of George W. Bush published before the 2004 presidential election, Bush on the Couch.

Those of us who read the aforementioned work were particularly concerned about the warning of Dr. Frank about the latent ticking time bomb within Bush's tormented psyche and how it might ultimately explode given the tormenting pressures of a second term, as ultimately occurred.

Dr. Frank in concert with the Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity has updated Bush's beleaguered mental state in an article published on Consortiumnews.com on July 27.  

As the eminent psychiatrist warned in Bush on the Couch, a troubled individual such as Bush, who has freely indicated that he is ultimately aware of his own inadequacies to handle a job such as the presidency, is likely to become exceedingly dangerous when cornered.  

When it rains it pours.  It is currently pouring for George W. Bush as he desperately attempts to rescue Republicans, many of whom are saying "no thanks" and running as fast as they can to avoid the stigma of failure increasingly enveloping him along with his entire regime.

The other day Bush poured out glowing praise for Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, expressing his desire for him to continue.  The warm words of praise apparently had no effect on Army Times, Air Force Times, Navy Times, and Marine Corps Times.

In a bruising editorial slated to run on Monday, just one day before America's voters go to the polls in the crucial mid-term congressional election, the aforementioned papers, which are published by the Military Times Media Group, a subsidiary of Gannett Co., Inc., Rumsfeld's termination is urged.

Rumsfeld recently told critics to just relax and wait for his promised positive results.  The Army Times feels otherwise, as expressed in these sharp words:

No other cliché fits what George Bush has done to America during his reign of incredible error than this time-worn but timely cliché: The road to hell is paved with alleged good intentions.

There is nothing any world leader can do that is worse than to wage a war minus clear and convincing proof that the nation he represents is under immediate attack.

That is precisely what George Bush, Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, and Donald Rumsfeld, did, using the infamous forged document that Colin Powell read in lambasting Iraq at the UN to scare everyone into the Iraq War.

Remember when Republicans and Democrats made such a sick spectacle of themselves, carrying on as if they were saving the entire world by launching the war against Iraq?
