Kucinich questions Bush's mental health
Tue Oct 30, 6:52 PM ET

PHILADELPHIA - Democratic presidential candidate Dennis Kucinich questioned President Bush's mental health in light of comments he made about a nuclear Iran precipitating World War III.

"I seriously believe we have to start asking questions about his mental health," Kucinich, an Ohio congressman, said in an interview with The Philadelphia Inquirer's editorial board on Tuesday. "There's something wrong. He does not seem to understand his words have real impact."

Kucinich, known for his liberal views, trails far behind the leading candidates in most Democratic polls. He was in Philadelphia for a debate at Drexel University.

Bush made the remarks at a news conference earlier this month.

He said: "I've told people that if you're interested in avoiding World War III, it seems like you ought to be interested in preventing them (Iran) from having the knowledge necessary to make a nuclear weapon."

Kucinich said he doesn't believe his comments about the president's mental health are irresponsible, according to a story posted on the newspaper's Web site.

"You cannot be a president of the United States who's wanton in his expression of violence," Kucinich said. "There's a lot of people who need care. He might be one of them. If there isn't something wrong with him, then there's something wrong with us. This, to me, is a very serious question."

In response, Republican National Committee spokesman Dan Ronayne said it was hard to take Kucinich seriously.

Biden had a good quote from the debate also:

"Giuliani only has three words in every sentence; a noun, a verb and 9/11."

That made me chuckle a bit. I guess you'd have to watch it. Youtube should have it soon.

The Democrat wackos tried to pull the same stunt on Reagan in his first term; near the end of his second term we now he did have onset Alzheimer's disease but that wasn't what the self-serving Dems were alleging.

Now Kucinich comes along with the same tripe in a feeble effort to defame Bush yet again and imply that the Republican leadership is hiding something and exercising poor judgment in not acting on this supposed illness.

What's rich is that if anyone should check into a mental health clinic, it's Dennis Cuckoo-for Cocoa Puffs" Kucinich. Talk about out of touch, bruddah.

This story only leads to one conclusion: Dennis Kucinich has become desperate and is now swinging wild punches, or worse: one expects a drowning man, in his panic and irrational state, to stand on someone else's shoulders and drown them first to save himself. One does not expect potential national leaders to act like this, however.

the President of the United States suggested World War III will happen if a country with virtually no Navy, a short-distance Air Force, and no inter-continental weaponry acquires a nuke. This, while Pakistan and North Korea have them.

And you think Kucinitch is out of touch.

Yes, this is the pot calling the kettle black, but if we can look past the speaker's own faults and shortcomings, one must certainly agree that Bush has rarely acted like a rational, thoughtful leader.

He is a classic example of an "end justifying the means" leader, and those can be very dangerous.

To quote Bender (Futurama, after being chosen captain): "Well, I DO think of human life as expendable..."

I commented at the time that Bush was irresponsible for saying what he did. I stand by that. I also think Kucinich was irresponsible for saying what he just said about Bush...unless he has good grounds.

I am not ready to immediately dismiss what Kucinich said. I'd like to hear more about why he said it. We now know that Nixon was buckling under the pressure at the end. Bush must be under enormous pressure. It is not beyond the possiblility that he has slid over the edge...

But I don't think a person in the national spotlight should speculate about this without some grounds.

(It's entirely another thing for people here to say it or question Bush's sanity.)

Well, Kucinich did see a UFO. I heard that at the debate this afternoon (or yesterday EDT). And he said the UFO 'spoke to him'
Richardson wants the truth about Roswell's crash released.
But, Giuliani DID announce plans to combat UFOs a few months ago.
And Bush DID say that God told him to invade Iraq.
What's the old saying "the company you keep"?
