Taken With a Shaker of Salt

Atrios admits that Capitol Hill Blue isn't terribly reliable. In fact, he refers to this article as "Democratic Porn."

Alexander Cockburn, though, is giving it some play, noting that the item has been making the internet rounds--so, what the hell, I'll post, and you decide. Is Bush really turning into a raving lunatic--as opposed to just the regular lunatic we all know he is?

Maybe, maybe not. But it wouldn't surprise me if that WAS the case. Considering that he'll serve plates of food with NO silverware at fundraisers (reason: so he wouldn't be bothered by any noise during his speech), some of the allegations in the article are well within the realm of plausibility. Inability to "abide disloyalty" and chalking things up to "God's will" sound right in line with Bush's imperial image of himself. The war president as emperor.

No word yet on whether or not he'll request that people approach him on their hands and knees with their eyes averted. But who knows what might become the case should he manage to cheat his way into a second term?
