Bush says DEMOCRATS are like a teenager with a new credit card!!!
In psychology, psychological projection (or projection bias) is a defense mechanism in which one attributes to others one’s own unacceptable or unwanted thoughts or/and emotions. President Bush has been “projecting,” a lot, lately, and it raises the question of whether he is - to put it politely – “of sound mind.”

Two weeks ago Bush – who has expanded Executive power to the point of tyranny - had the audacity to compare Democratic leaders in Congress to the politician of early 20th Century Europe who ignored the rise of fascist and totalitarian dictators – like Hitler and Lenin. Doesn’t he realize that HE is the "Hilter" in that scenario?

And then, two days ago - after vetoing a bill that would have provided $600 billion dollars for domestic programs like health care and education – on a day when it was announced that the TRUE cost of the “wars” in Iraq and Afghanistan would be $1.5 TRILLION dollars – Bush, without a trace of IRONY, complained about the “skewed” spending priorities of the Democratic leaders in Congress, saying that they were “acting like a teenager with a new credit card.”

My GOD! Talk about PROJECTION BIAS!! Has there EVER been a President who has acted MORE like a smug, petulant, teenager than George W. Bush? (Don't you just want to smack that smirk right off his face!?)

And, how can anyone, “of sound mind,” who just put two discretionary “wars” costing $1.5 TRILLION dollars on the “national credit card” – to be paid by you, me, our children, and our grandchildren – honestly complain about Congress’s deficit spending on domestic programs that will actually HELP people?

He is precisely like a slow learning child, he is exactly a slow learning child. Not to insult slow learning children. He should not even be allowed to own conventional firearms.

6. I know America used to be the lending a hand nation
but I think it is about damn time that we started helping our own. That's what America is all about helping our people. Instead of the turd in chief complaining about domestic spending because he wants more , more, more for his war he ought to have somebody put a sock in it....

9. This from the guy who sent a plane load of palletized cash to
Iraq and can't account for 9 billion of it. Yeah I'd say he's projecting just a little.
