1. Where do I start?
Edited on Tue Jan-11-05 11:01 AM by Bouncy Ball
He seems to be completely amoral, completely without any compassion or sense of human decency, he was raised to only think of himself, he is not that bright (I think the Daily Show uses the term "technically retarded"), he seems to still be actively alcoholic and/or experiencing a fairly serious medical problem or problems, and he's just flat-out evil. I doubt he even gives a shit about the people who voted for him and/or raised money for him, much less anyone else.

The only person who exists is him. He doesn't think about the future, doesn't care about the past. He's not reflective or insightful. He doesn't seem to have any kind of value system beyond what the religious right expect him to say or do. For having almost the entire government under the power of his party, he is still amazingly ineffective at most things he attempts.

He has no problem ordering the US military to pre-emptively invade and attack a country that did us no harm and posed us no thread. He has no problem with US servicemembers and innocent Iraqis continuing to die in said war.

Should I go on? There's more...

Yes? Ok, I will. When you listen to him (if you can stand it) you get the strong sense no one is home. There is no thinking going on in there. He is a poor public speaker, to make an understatement and cannot even smile without also looking like he is about to give someone a wedgie or possibly slide a knife into their back.

He is not funny, but seems to imagine himself to be, he seems to be totally lacking in knowledge about other cultures or countries (doubly amazing in someone who is supposed to be a "world leader" representing a HUGE country). He is intellectually void, incurious.

He seems about as deep as a pool of spit.
