Whoa he just showed his little tyrant colors to peter baker!
Peter asked him a three part question, and it was excellent, about unchecked powers of the Executive branch. He brushed off the first two parts, bristled and hissed and shot him some ugly stares as he lied about how he has over sight and would never over reach. His reaction was very revealing.

1. BRAVO Peter Baker
I love it when the mask slips and the little chickenshit is made manifest.

3. I agree, it was an excellent question
and hit the nail on the head. Unchecked powers equals a dictatorship and bush's response proves Peter Baker had it absolutely correct.

5. He's very belligerent today.
In fact, I'm a little surprised at just how belligerent he is with these questions. Very schizophrenic if compared to his demeanor last night.

It looks to me like he's ready to blow.

9. Today's newspapers all seem to talk about his changed
attitude during last night's speech - noted that his arrogance was gone and he was taking responsibility. Wonder what they will write today?

6. He's appearing pretty unhinged.....mood swings defending his defenseless
positions. He's goes back and forth from whining to belligerence to lecturing. He grimaces frowns, jerks, pokes his fingers.

He's trying to convince himself of what he supposedly believes. He's really an idiot who should be on meds if he isn't already. Really pissed that no one likes him and seems really worried about being caught out in his Tips Program for Surveillance of Americans,though. He's really on the edge...what will throw him over. :scared:

12. Mood swings...
I noticed that he would go from normal volume of speaking to practically shouting. There's something wrong with him. Also, he can't seem to gather his thoughts. Hesitates for long periods.

8. He's decompensating. He's a sniveling, disgusting little weasel.
Apologies to weasels.

What are we going to do, folks? I just turned off the TV. Can't take it anymore.

I finally got through to Russ Feingold's office. Line was busy forever. Person who answered was hoarse. Guess he's been on the phone non-stop. I said to draw up the articles of impeachment, now.

Bush is insane. His cabal is insane. what are we going to do??? :mad: :mad:

17. I can't believe I survived it!
I almost had a shot of tequila at 11:30 in the morning to get through it. Almost. ;)
