    Sociopathology as High Administrative Directive

    "There are many indications that the White House was in fact planning an attack. It was said that the Bush administration wanted to complete this military strike as its last act before it left office."

    I would like to see more about this statement. Where did it come from, is there any evidence. If so I think just this plan would qualify, yet again, as high crimes and misdemeanors by this president et all. It is an idea that would fit with this administrations sociopathic behavior. Part frat-boy immaturity with a twist of pure evil.

    I vote for institutionalizing the lot of them, Cheney, W, Addington... Prison or a well guarded but often forgotten mental institution for the criminally insane might just do it.

    And a special place for W's daddy who turned over his responsibility for his wayward child to others then let his own political enemies guide W into this vicious morally bankrupt administration. I mean, Sr. was once the head of the CIA but still didn't stop this plague of a son from taking over our country. It's not as if they would have stop at assassinating others. Yesterdays reaffirmation of Sr.'s support for his son just clinches it.

    I'm just saying.
